Good for you - I have a similar reaction to Shell, in view of their
involvement with the Ogoni people.

However, on an objective basis, most of the oil companies are as bad as each
other, so using Mobil is probably no worse than using anything else. What
might be more constructive, since you're on the web and all, would be to go
along to http://www.mobil.com/contact/   and let them know your feelings
