Hi Dave,

LMAO, ahh come on, wearing nylons never hurt anyone...:)

I didn't explain myself clearly. What the fireman did was get the static charge then touched the fuel tank filler neck without the fuel nozzle being there so there would be no ground present. At one time there was plastic covered fuel nozzels, still is?, and that insulated you from discharging the static charge, then with there free hand the person tried to install the cap before they hung up the pump handle.

Ya I also have a hard time about cell phones setting off explosive charges, or in this case a fuel tank. Remember back when the CB craze hit they also kept saying a CB could set off a explosive charge. I never remember hearing about any explosive set off by a CB. Don't mean that it can't but I just don't remember ever hearing about it.
