Give Blood for Oil  E-mail
Written by Hank Green

No...I'm serious. Gasoline is now so coveted in America, that folks are swapping one life-giving, all-powerful fluid for another. Yep, if you donate blood to the American Red Cross in Pennsylvania or New Jersey this summer, you'll get a chance to win $3,500 in gas!

I guess it would be creepier if it were a direct swap (thanks for the blood, will that be regular or premium.) So I guess there's nothing wrong with a little incentive..we're all for blood donations. We just wish people didn't want / need gasoline quite this bad.
