I think it's a good idea but i just couldn't do it. My car is my livelihood, i need it to work. I have a mobile business and a part time job that involves driving to peoples houses all over the state. I couldn't live without petrol for any amount of time.

It's useless If everyone were to boycott gasoline for one day, the next day gas stations would be twice as busy as everyone would be filling up they're empty tanks.

Sure I would.

Absolutely, if we could get a MAJORITY of the people to take part! The best idea I have seen, so far, is the one where the people TOTALLY stop buying one brand for a month or 2, then another brand, then another ... I'd definitely take part in a good, sensible idea!

YEAH! Although I wouldn't have any effect on it, I travel by train and bike..

Yes, I would, but that would require quitting my job and all activities for my kids (baseball for instance). My only real gas use is to work - 30 miles round trip a day. The only answer for most employed office people is to telecommute, which I would gladly do given the opportunity.

I already do, in a way. I live about 10 minutes away from work, so I walk every day. I really only use the car once a week to do shopping. However, it's pretty difficult to quit driving completely as most American cities are too large and don't provide adequate public transportation.
