[TheForge] Why an acetylene leak is not desirable

[CraigSchaefer]

"TW, i just saw a commercial for for an upcoming Orange Count Choppers 
episode where they filled a 55 gallon garbage bag with oxygen and 
acetylene... if a static spark had set off that mix, the series would 
have ended right then and there..." 



Is this one of those 'tree falls in the woods' things?   Would anybody miss them? 



When a bunch of us were greater miscreants than we are now, we used to fill plastic milk jugs with oxy/acet and set them off with a rifle.    They made a pretty good blast at that small size.
