Here's a thought:  'Know how some gas stations are always posting signs or
on-pump stickers whining about state and federal taxes per gallon? How
about a "sticker war" with stickers with sayings like, "American Soldiers/
are dying / to bring you gasoline./  Don't waste it."  Or, "Think gas
costs too much? / Try paying for it/ with your life. / Honor our
soliders./ Don't waste gas. "
