Thanks. I must note that the day when it stops holding fine, could be
the last day when we see your posts (hopefully that does not happen),
so you won't be able to reach us from heavens and say, guys, on such
and such a day my tank did go bad after all. Again, I am hoping that
it does not happen to you or me.

Usually rust makes pinholes that leak air long before there is any
danger of a rupture.
