You can search for this yourself:              bullet gasoline tank fire              It's a myth, mainly as a result of many Hollywood movies showing cars       exploding from a single bullet to the tank. Even multiple bullets fired       into a tank won't cause the fuel to ignite. You need an incendiary       bullet, and even then you might require more than one.              --       Jeff              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
