Whatta load of BS!
First this does not belong on Virtual Vairs and is in violation of forum 
rules.
Secondly, it is a forward from someone who is uneducated on how things work 
in real life and is not factual.
Exxon/Mobil NEVER reduced prices due to pressure from anyone.
These so-called boycotts do not work, and will never work. Follow these 
links to learn something...........

The company I work for manufactures grease that is sold by and marketed by 
Exxon/Mobil. E/M and BP/Castrol are our largest customers. Their demand for 
our products keeps me gainfully employed. To my line of thinking, what's 
good for Exxon/Mobil is good for me..................so it burns my behind 
when I receive messages like these.
