...There is an interesting article about propane out there that some of you should read.
It's called "Geeking out over Propane" by Amerigas.:B
Sometimes there is to much Geeking out on a lot of RV subjects when it could be alot less technical for the average Joe.
Not sure of the definition of "Geeking" but if it means a strive for accuracy, I'm all for it. Written communication requires accuracy in the use of names and labels.
If I am standing beside someone and they call a cylinder a tank, I know what they mean. If I am reading a discussion of a tank, I assume it is a tank, not a cylinder.
Also since some retailers sell LPG by the pound and others sell it by the gallon, how do you compare prices? It is easy if you know how much a gallon weighs, impossible if you don't. That little bit of accurate information affects your wallet.
I work in the engineering and architectural field. Directions can only be followed correctly if the originator uses the correct name/terminology. Correct names and terms avoid confusion and costly mistakes.
