Nice idea but it is really a myth unless we are ready to stop going to work and other activities that use gas. it is the ultimate amount we use not just when we buy it that counts. Part of the problem is every teenage kid these days has a car and uses it all the time and their yup parents drive big SUV's. Overseas the gas is $5 a gallon, of course they have alternatives and we don't (public transportation, etc). When gas gets high enough here, there will be alternatives such as ethanol, vegetable oil diesel (this will help the farmers, too) 100 MPG carburetors and other alternatives that the oil companies have bought out and are sitting on now, but if gas goes high enough they will have to trot them out. We can make gas from coal and we will once it goes high enough and the tree-huggers Volvo's gas tanks are on empty. Just a few thoughts of my $0.03.
