Gas shortage? Oh, you mean the one caused by stupid people filling up
every empty can, bottle, and jar they have. They made a minor
inconvenience for a few a major ordeal for many.

You mean people like these?

Now that is funny. Hopefully those bags don't melt!

The truck will probably bread down before he burns that gas.


The one of the pick up truck is an actual picture taken by my buddy
in Florida. He drove down from NYS before this happened and he's
not sure if he'll be able to get back, not knowing if he'll be able to get
gas on the way back.

I can't speak for the validity of the trunk full of bags.

My thoughts precisely. I did a stupid thing recently, I was draining
the gas from a small motor and use a plastic picnic cup. It fit into
the small space and was working perfectly until the bottom dissolved.

I wonder if those base area gasoline soluble?

Exact same happened to me several years ago. I think every thing is
fine until..... ;~)

FWIW, in Texas, possibly for the rest of the country, it is illegal to
store gasoline in anything that is not approved for gasoline storage.

It is. It's also a federal DOT reg. I believe approved containers
have to be red, as well.
