Driving leaky gas truck in Cayo was ok, says owner
In related news, we today received a call from the owner of Western Gas Company in Cayo. He took issue with our story yesterday which implied that the driving of a rapidly leaking gas truck through the streets of Santa Elena was a dangerous act. He stated that the route, which he claimed leads through a sparsely populated area before entering an empty football field, was carefully chosen with maximum safety in mind. In talking to people involved in the industry, however, we found that opinion varies as to the wisdom of driving a leaking butane truck. Many experts maintain that the best strategy is to leave the vehicle in place to isolate it from any possible sources of combustion.
