Tomorrow is supposed to be the national petition to not buy any gas >.>

Is 70,000 all that they put in the reserve even before the act was passed? Or is 70,000 just a small dent in the number they put in reserve. I see how this could help -- short term, but in the long run, I don't see it helping out all that much

^Yeah, except for the part where it has to be really difficult for you to get places. Or it's just a pain in the ass for your friends who do drive. I can't go anywhere right now because my car's in the shop, and god forbid I should not have friends who are too lazy to get their licenses. So we can't go anywhere until I get my car back, and it's completely unfair because it shouldn't all depend on me, especially as that still leaves me always paying for gas. [/rant]

Those days are stupid and useless, a lesson I thought we all learned last year.
