Really kind of makes you wonder who the bad guys are huh? A little tid-bit
from petrol-land:
A friend of mine is a manager at a gas station here near Akron, Oh. Everyone
seems to be putting more effort into controlling the vapors from escaping
while refueling at the pumps. Their solution, is to have the nozzles with 2
hoses to them. One hose administers the dino-juice, another sucks the vapors
up to the canopy above where they are burned by a pilot light. Note that I am
not talking about the multi-hose pumps for the purpose of filling reg, prem,
etc. They look like one unit. Kinda neat, thought I would share it.
