T&T: Fw: Fiberglass Propane Tanks

[Larry N. Brown]

I posted on this subject a couple weeks back. I've been using them for over 
a year and they're great.

I related an anecdotal story about a friend's misadventure with one of these 
tanks. He had it sitting under a badly corroded outdoor BBQ grill. Chicken 
and sausage grease dripped down onto it and ignited. Burnt through the 
regulator hose and turned the whole thing into a flame thrower. When they 
finally got the fire out, the plastic handles were burnt beyond recognition 
but the FRP tank was unharmed.

Yeah, they're good.
