Re: [a/s] Propane Vehicles (was: New member intro.)



Pete: You are correct in what you said about fire. As a fire person, teaching 
non-fire people (yet), in my classes I refer to fire as if it were alive and 
trying to get us if we don't keep up our guard. Fire follows some very strict 
rules (convection, conduction, etc.) and NEVER breaks those rules. We can 
influence the way the fire burns by things we do (provide drafts, different 
fuels, etc.) and WE break the rules. As you most likely realize, sometimes a 
source of ignition is unavoidable and when the fuel and the heat come 
together.... BOOM... through no fault of ours. We must control either the 
fuel, heat or oxygen to keep fire from occurring.

P.S. Ms. Hunter has me gun-shy, I spell chech everything now...Bill
