   Ah-yup.  I once decided to use a torch to make some bolt holes for a   
   frame mounted receiver hitch on an old beater truck.  I clamped the   
   hitch in place and used the bolt holes as torch guides.  Imagine my   
   surprise when I blew through a fuel line on the opposite side of a   
   member and flaming gas poured out.  One of the few times I was happy to   
   be working on a truck laying on the ground in the middle of 100,000   
   square miles of kitty litter.  A couple handfuls of sand put out the   
   fire, and all that really poured out was what was in the line.
