BOOM! alright. O_o

TDD

I'm sure they were thrilled... During my
firefighting days I loved to see the water blown
out of the clay in the blow-holes.

One can really get an appreciation of the Btu's of
heat when one lights off!

Gas detection/level meters are more accurate and
dependable than ever.

Natural gas rises which tends to dissipate it.
Propane sinks so you have to flow water to
dissipate it. Sometimes the relief valves freeze
open because expanding gases cool. More fun. The
local utility is charging a fantastic amount to
run pipelines so most developers are switching to
u underground propane tanks. Okay until the
landscapers run over the dome with their
Bobcats... More fun.

If the fire truck stalls when going to a gas leak
do NOT attempt to restart it.

Sonic boom HAH
