Agree 100%. Maybe if we walked to work for a week or rode a bike or something. Filling up on the 14th instead of the 15th makes no difference. You still burn 18 gallons that week.

The only way to actually hurt the companies is to no longer be dependant on it. Someday that may happen. Not soon I'm afraid.
