The Hindenburg
My mess, my clean-up. Feller can't even get away with a little hyperbole
these days. Next time I'll take it one teeny word at a time:-)

7,000,000 cubic ft. of H2, and it's container(The Hindenburg), burned in
34 sec. Maybe no a bang but, it certainly wasn't a whimper. The hydrogen
was the fuel. St. Elmo's Fire may have been the ignition.

?Electrical conditions in the atmosphere were probably a little risky.
Earlier in the day, rubber factories in northern New Jersey had been
closed due to static in the air; the fear was that stocks of carbon
black might ignite.?

The "Space Shuttle" runs on hydrogen and oxygen. Pound for pound the
best "bang" for your buck that you can get.

Y'all can go back to pullin' weeds now.
