  Spontaneous combustion.  Doesn't always happen but it can.  Someone 
once told me he saw it happen where O2 was simply "leaking" onto an 
asphalt road.  Guys have used their O2 bottles to run pneumatic nail 
guns.  Reasonable price and no compressor, lasts a long time but 
DON'T OIL!  Don't remember if that guy had seen one blow up or was 
just strongly warned about it.
  Oil and O2 won't always go off, usually so infrequently as to lure people 
into thinking it's safe.
