Can I get some cheap propane for my grill and RV, Keith?

OT: No, but if you find some please tell me!! My price has gone from $1.25 a gallon to $2.65 a gallon over the past year. Terrible.

BOT: Most businesses and corporations are driven by their legal teams and risk management in these decisions. No offense, but risk management people always seem to take the path of least resistance. That means not potentially exposing themselves to a perceived risk with someone carrying a gun. Unfortunately, they sometimes do exactly the opposite of what is really the safest approach. Until something happens that proves their current method is wrong, then they are fat, dumb and happy in their little pens (cubicles.)

Well, partially true. There has never been a case of ignition from a cell phone documented. See http://www.pei.org/Index.aspx?p=36. The static discharge from the body to the car is the main culprit. I am also certified in propane handling due to refueling the balloon, and there has never been a fire caused by a cell phone with propane vapor, and it is MUCH more volatile than gasoline vapors.
