Be aware that Hydrogen and or acetylene can be REAL hazardous to 'work'
with. Acetelyne is real nasty about static discharges and EITHER in any
quantity have enough punch to hurt someone. Seriously.
Also, Acetylene compressed over about 10 psig can decompose
spontaneously and
rapidly (read: explode [In the tanks its actually dissolved in
'somethine
else, NOT in a gas...]
{granted this is of marginal Tesla relavance, but i'd not like to see us
lose
anyone by accident...)
=================
Neigbours will ALWAYS present a risk, bigger if they don't undersstand.
If the understand, some still may crab, but its worth a little
edumication
And adding acetylene or hydrogen kaboooms seriously incereases the risk.
==================================================
[Note to the line wrap troubleshooters. I'd expect all of those
to show up wrapped, if the problem is in the server. I'm still seeing
fragmented
lines (like that one i just faked) come thru here.]
