Consumer Perspective
Omaha, Nebraska, is in the forefront in the War on Terror and making news across the country in the process. A new gas station concept is launching here with the company Terror-Free Oil, a part of the Terror-Free Oil Initiative.
A news report from Channel 5 out of Cleveland, Ohio, says, "Area drivers will soon be able to fill up with gasoline made from 'terror-free oil'. KETV in Omaha reports that a gas station is about to open near 129th and Q streets named Terror Free Oil, and the idea is to offer consumers petroleum products from countries that do not sponsor terror."

I drive past the new Terror-Free Oil station every day on my way to and from work. And I believe in the principles that govern this business. But all the news and buzz is nothing but empty yammering without a true test in the marketplace with the consumers weighing in on whether or not it's a good place to put our gas dollars. That's why I'll be there the first day they open and will give you and honest first-person account of what it's truly like, all from the consumer's perspective.
And just to set the record straight right from the beginning, I am not a paid blogger. I am doing this as a volunteer. I hope this gas station idea of theirs works out because I'm really tired of the terrorists always seeming to have the upper hand. I want to feel like in my own small way, I'm doing something to help stop them. But I'm also a skeptical consumer who's tired of the marketing hype about every product imaginable that surrounds every one of us every darn day of the year. If there are problems with the gas station, I'll be here to give you the honest low-down. I'll tell you the good stuff too. But no hype. Just the truth.
See you soon.
