Evidently not. Who knew?

"A man using a vacuum cleaner to suck gasoline out of a vehicle was burned
and his house damaged when the fuel exploded, the Albuquerque Fire
Department said."

Anybody with a fully functioning brain, you moron.

Amazing but then nothing surprises me anymore. I can class myself in
the stupid category for a stunt last winter.

Went out to burn my brush piles, stopped on the way to fill up 5 gal
cans, one with gas for the snow blower, one with diesel to start the
fires with. Stuffed paper and some kindling under the first, added
diesel, lit it, went to second and repeated. Back to first and wasn't
burning well so splashed more diesel on. Woosh. back to 2nd, repeat
there. 1st still not doing well so tossed a really good bunch on
getting not only a good "woosh" but I now had a flame flckering at the
can spout. Smothered that by slapping glove over it. That is when I
realized I had the gas can, not the diesel one. Had sit down and
coffeee while waiting for my legs to quit shaking.
