Democrat Victory In Louisiana

i think you made a typo somewhere.

did you mean to say gasoline is extremely flammable?

or

drop a ciggy into a pool of gasoline and you don't have a fire?

Oddly enough, those two words mean the same thing. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/inflammable?s=t

And, yes you would have a fire if you dropped a lit cig. into a pool of gasoline. You might be thinking of kerosene, which will burn but is not as flammable as gasoline.
 
A cigarette has the potential to light a pool of gasoline but just doesn’t have enough sustained heat. Gas ignites between 500 °F and 540 °F, the cigarette at its hottest was between 450 °F and 500 °F but only when it was actually being smoked. An ignition is very improbable. - Myth Busters

The liquid gas might not ignite but the fumes would.

As I said earlier, the only thing likely to happen from throwing a lit cigarette into a pan of gasoline is the cigarette being instantly extinguished. I've seen it done many times, including in a relatively small garage.

A cigarette will not ignite a bucket or pan of gas but a cigar will.

This---^

A cigar wouldn't do it either.

You need a high temperature spark.

Only the fumes ignite unless the fuel is compressed in a confined space.


I say a rocket from a boat made that rig explode.

Crude oil DOES NOT LIGHT without a ton of work. Neither do kerosine, diesel, or crude oil fumes.

You guys obviously never burned things as children.

You hold the bucket of gasoline and I'll show you how to ignite it with a cigar.

You can ignite the fumes of gasoline with a spark.

If you take that cigar a drop it in a bucket full of gasoline or into a puddle of gasoline, it will go out the same as in water.

Also, gasoline IS NOT crude oil.

An oil rig does not drill refined gasoline out of the ground.
 
So an offshore oil rig, one of thousands of offshore oil rigs, explodes due to negligence, even though it uas never happened before?

Where did the explosion come from?

How do you ignite crude oil?

It was not the crude, it was a methane gas surge.
 
Geeze, 14 points, another gigantic repudiation in molecular detail of the liberal agenda in general and the Obama agenda in particular.:rolleyes:

Yes but the victory attaches Boner and McConnell faster to the Tea Party Tar Baby. Closer contests woulda made their political treacheries palatable excuses when they turn a blind eye to illegals and ObamaCare and winking at the Muslims.

As children? Why would a fascination with something is primal as fire need to end with adulthood?

There's little choice since the government runs out of money in December, but I think it shouldn't fund the government through September 2015, march is more like it in my opinion. The voters didn't vote for another budget from this Congress.

The military still functions during a government shutdown, so why is a shutdown bad?

Because you grow up and learn about thermite and then you lose all interest in fire.

Also war. :(
 
We've had 18 of them with little effect. I posted the list last week. Like I said then, the American people were so pissed off at the Republicans for shutting down the government a year ago, they gave them the Senate and a bigger majority in the House this year. :D

Right, but those 'shutdowns' were half assed. I'm talking turn the shit off. The money to disability and UIC still flows, as do essential essential services.

The rest of the shutdown does not have any impact on the solvency of state governments.

Do we want China to revalue our debt again?

The "shutdown" will never be allowed to shut everything down, never has. There will always be enough federal employees at work to shut down the WWII monument to 90 year olds, and cancel White House tours for children.:D

Congrats vette... your son is just like you.
