Boy, these posts brought back some memories for me of the 60's growing up in West Texas where virtually everyone ran on butane/propane because it was unbelievably (by today's standards) CHEAP! (about $.03/gal). Sure, it can be dangerous if not treated with respect. However, I don't recall hearing of a single mis-hap, even though some people were doing some incredibly stupid things when they first began convering over to LP from gas or kero. For, example, some wise guy discovered that the high-pressure liquid butane from the fill-hose was a great engine cleaner/degreaser and the word of this "innovation" quickly swept through our community. One of our hot-shot neighbors conceived the brilliant idea of using it to "blow-out" the dirt from his tractor radiator and promptle froze and burst it. He, of course, would not own up to what he had done, but it was a bit hard to otherwise explain a freeze-busted radiator in the middle of a hot, West Texas summer!
