Here are some interesting facts about the companies
that import oil that eventually ends up in our cars'
fuel tanks.

Major companies that import Middle Eastern oil
>
> Shell........................... ... 205,742,000

barrels
> Chevron/Texaco......... .......144,332,000 barrels
> Exxon/Mobil.............. ...... 130,082,000

barrels
> Marathon/Speedway... .......117,740,000 barrels
> Amoco................... .......... ...62,231,000

barrels
> If you do the math at $30/barrel, these imports
> amount to over $18 BILLION aid to the terrorist.
>


> Here are some large companies that do not import

Middle Eastern oil:
> Citgo............... 0 barrels
> Sunoco............ 0 barrels
> Conoco........... 0 barrels
> Sinclair............. 0 barrels
> BP/Phillips..... 0 barrels
> Hess................. 0 barrels


My friend then added:

A friend sent me these facts in an e-mail that was
intended to make us all aware of the connection
between Middle East oil, the "gas stations" that we
fill up at, and financing terrorism.
Here is the question:
Can I have an effect on the dependence of Middle
Eastern imported oil by choosing a filling station
that does not import Middle Eastern oil?


after spending a quarter of a tank on a few finds I thought I was glad that I used Phillips gas.
