There is a reason why they put those warnings on every pump because it CAN happen .But hey your car never caught fire so it must not happen.

If you're going to quote me, quote the entire sentence and not part of it so that it takes on a different meaning. There were 170 static related fires at gas pumps in 14 years. You going to tell me that there were another 5,000 fires at gas pumps related to vehicle engines running during the same 14 years? As I said the odds before were pretty slim that this would ever happen. You have better odds of getting into an accident driving down the road. So why are you taking that chance? How is that not beyond you?

Tell me the reason why the put "NO CELLPHONES" on the warning signs? Are you telling me that CAN happen too?
