the bottle in the pics was the victim of a faulty owner who "accidentally"
left the bottle warmer on in the closed trunk for several hours... then the
burst valve failed, allowing pressure the build beyond the capacity of the
bottle... and the rest you can see in the pics... no matter how you are
careless it is dangerous... I am not as worried by the owner of the rt, but
more by the tech inspector who passed him.

you expect there to be many stupid people... just not those responsible for
your safety.
