Miracle Energy Liquid Discovered

From http://www.markgillis.com/Gasoline.html:

What if I told you I could sell you a new, fantastic substance which will vastly revolutionise travel and transportation? This stuff will enable you to transport almost any quantity of any material, up to two tons in weight, to another location 20 miles away, in less than 30 minutes. It’s available in convenient packaging, weighs less than 5 pounds per unit, and is available anywhere.


And what if I could sell you this fantastic substance for less than $2.00 per unit? Imagine, transport 4,000 pounds of stuff across town inside a half hour, for two bucks? You’d be all over that, right? What a fantastic advancement, right?


Well, it’s called gasoline. Petroleum. Gas. That stuff you complain about so much, as if it is your god-given right to have unlimited quantities of the stuff, at your fingertips, for whatever price you will lower your dignity enough to pay. It’s a modern miracle, and you take it for granted.


Here’s an idea, oh corpulent one: Next time you contemplate (that means “think about”, by the way) getting your groceries home, or your next six-pack, or whatever, from the mega-super-mart down the road, think about doing it without using a drop of gas. With the strength of your legs and back. With your guts.


I bet then you’ll not whine so stridently when the price of gasoline goes up a penny or two. And if you still whine and moan, then you, my friend are most of the problem. If you don’t like the situation, don’t just bitch about it, put your mind and strength into fixing it.
