Citgo Stripes Again

[webpa]

The newly-named "Stripes" convenience store chain purchases gasoline
from Citgo refineries, among others. So says the CFO of Susser
Holdings Corporation, owner of the chain. Email her and ask if you
doubt.

Act as you see fit. Me? I no longer patronize ANY "Stripes"
establishment for any reason.

OK, so you've apparently got some sort of axe to grind with
Citgo. The rest of us can't tell what that is, of course, and in
any case are at a complete loss to see how this has anything
whatsoever to do with electronics.

The "axe" is Hugo Chavez, the soon to be dictator-for-life of the
nation of Venezuela. Citgo is completely owned by the government of
Venezuela, as are all other petroleum activities inside the country.
Chavez has also promised to finish nationalizing ALL business in the
country, having already starting with telecommunications and
broadcasting. Does any of this have anything to do with electronics?

Nope, not really. See ya. And please try to keep your
political protests restricted to a more appropriate forum.

Not that any of the oil companies are particularly good for mankind;
but at least Venezuela isn't actively at war with us, as are the
recipients of quite a bit of the oil company money that flows into the
Middle East, and thence into the coffers of the extremists who extort
cash from the Saudi royal house, for instance.
