Sounds like the press is trying to scare folks by "Blowing" this out of proportion. Tim

I am sure that the press feels that they have a duty to inform the public about the risk, and rightly so. Right now the companies that fill and service the exchange tanks need to tell the public what theyy are doing to prevent contaminated tanks making it to the sale racks. I come from a part of the country where a lot of meth is produced. If I find out about them you can bet that they will get a visit from the local sherif.

I went out to fire my gasser up for some burgers tonight. Turned on the tank and I could smell gas. Checked the screw on cap to make sure it was tight, yes, but it was leaking. Somehow the cap had somewhat warped since last time I refilled and it no longer holds a seal, I could feel the gas coming out of the tank.

I'll be stopping to get a new cap and hose at the hardware store tomorrow so I can have those burgers. Pork nacho's tonight.
