Gas Out Day

Received an email on not buying gas on May 19th. The idea goes something like this, "Therefore may 19th has been formally declared as "stick it up their behind" day and the people of this nation should not buy a single drop of gasoline that day."

That's all well and good but I think essentially meaningless. A fart in the whirlwind type play.

Only way to affect gas prices long term is to reduce demand. A one day deal won't do it.

What might do it? Well, how about buying a bike? That's the option I've taken. Bought a new bike, will ride to work and around town. Long term mass biking does more good than silly 1 day stunts.
