Les - I think they were looking for a credit card to pay for those wings, they brought the library card, so I took advantage. Guilty as charged. Won't May not Highly unlikely (about 80%) it won't happen again.

And the same goes for this hijack! :0)

Anyone with questions about LNG and potential for explosions can find a couple of interesting comments at the website sesport posted. First the LNG would have to be returned to a gaseous state. It is stored at -260 or so degrees F. To predict what a large quantity (as in tons and tons) of LNG would do if say, dumped into 85 degree saltwater may be impossible without performing a couple of experiments. It is a physical chemistry problem that boggles the mind. At sesport's site there is mention of a non combustion explosion resulting if LNG is spilled on land. I would guess this would be the result of the rapid phase change of the LNG expanding 600 times it volume when it converts to a gaseous state.
