No amount of protesting, boycotting, or any thing else will have as much of an efffect on gas prices as us collectively using less.

Actually more, when gas was under 1.50 a gallon and rose to over 1.60 people were all up in arms, went over 2.00 and not only did people use just as much fuel, but consumption rose as did the sales of SUVs not untell the recent 4.00 hit have people finally slowed buying SUVs but only in some area's, I believe its just as mall fad, and the sheep public will go back to there old ways again soon.
