Gas War---Realistic??
 
I received the comments underneath my below web site URL as a forwarded email, and thought that the power of the Adult Internet is such that it might make a difference if we all creatively emailed site members/surfers/others. Wouldn't it be great if the American Public had Adult webmasters and Adult Internet folks to thank (assuming it works, of course). What do you think--any ideas???

Interesting. But I don't think it'd work that good. You'd have better luck asking a few spammers to blast a campaign to their 100million gi list with that msg.:2 cents:

Possibly good idea, but if you can't get people to stop buying army tanks as vehicles, this won't do shit.

Gas prices will go up anyway, administration needs to replenish equipment and supplies consumed in Iraq. Quickest way to do it, people will drive regardless of price.

I agree with IronHorse, you want to make a dent in gasoline prices, sell your 18MPG SUV and buy a Honda or Toyota hybrid.
