Of course it is.  Been there for like 30+ years.  I've always had a<br>very high sense of self-preservation, there for I've always been very<br>careful about what I do.  However, when you think pyro, don't think<br>the typical pyro.  I just enjoyed the torch and I've got a nice little<br>trick I do with non dairy creamer.<br><br>On Apr 6, 2005 10:11 PM, Tonee Northam <pb3vr6@yahoo.com> wrote:<br>>  "Pyro" and "Gas Station" in the same sentence. <br>>   <br>> Mike, is the gas station still there?<br>> <br>> <br>> Mike Smith <smithma7@gmail.com> wrote: <br>> I don't know anything on this penny/battery topic, but about four<br>> years ago, I bought a little torch from the local MAC tools guy.
