We're told not to use mobile phones on petrol forecourts but when did
you last here of a petrol station fire caused by a spark from a mobile

Last year.

There's a programme advertised on Discovery in the next week or so
where they carry out experiments to prove/disprovbe the ability of
mobile phones to cause petrol station fires. Trailer showed lots of
tanks filled with something that ignited and the researchers with
singed hair.

Mythbusters proved it was impossible to get a mobile phone to ignite a fire
on a petrol station forecourt.
