Default Storing fuel

I'm planning on storing 6000 gallons of fuel. I would like to bury the
tank. It's unknown how long the fuel will sit, without being used. Should
fuel stabilizer be used? Should I vent the tank so no condensation will
form?

TIA!

I smell a troll. If not, then I smell an environmental issue in the near
future.

Either way, that post stinks.

Yes...but I knew at once he was a troll because no one ever keeps more
than 5000 gallons of gas in their underground back-yard tank.

Just imagine. Five years after the collapse, and
he's still got fuel under ground. What are the
odds? Figure either marauding gangs of looters
or the government will have taken it away.

No, it's not a successful troll. A successful troll is one that gets people
all riled up and arguing, etc. Discussing the fact that it's a troll and
making jokes about the content doesn't make it a successful troll.

Stolen without permission from
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troll_(Internet)

"In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows
discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1] by
posting inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online
community (such as a forum, chat room, or blog), either accidentally[3][4]
or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional
response[5] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion."

This post either a legit post by a clueless individual or an attempt at a
troll which no one has bit on. My suspicion that it's an attempt at a troll
is the lack of any details about the type of fuel, the type of tank, etc.
My hope is that no one takes him seriously and gets taken down to level
that makes it a successful troll.

Oh wait... Are we arguing about whether it's a successful troll or not?
Does that make it a successful troll? ;-)

Yep, when the bomb comes, that 6000 gallons of fuel will make you get it
all over with...a bit faster!

Only a complete moronic dead brain would argue over
the definition of troll. It need FLAME to be
successful, but I'm far too stupid to know that.

"It need flame"

Is that English?
