<DIV><BR></DIV>Get flying buddy's address and ask the local Fire Marshall if
300 gallons of <BR>Nitro-Methane Fuel is ok to be stored in the basement by
the furnace which <BR>is next to the bedroom with out a window. Then, follow
with, "Statically <BR>only 1 out of 100 (gallon cans) leak". You should be
able to read about it <BR>in the paper the next day...<BR><BR>Ohh...Better
make the call from a payphone with gloves...Hmmm, better give <BR>this some
more thought. Think anyone would notice if you were wearing gloves <BR>when
it's 95 degrees outside?<BR><BR>Sorry, my warped mind working
