Underground tank is almost empty, probably has immersed pump that was NOT wired to NEC standards (it is the ME after all), so one leetle spark with the right fuel/air mix and ... kablooey! Never underestimate the ability of an Arab to screw things up, never!
I know you're kidding, but I'm feeling pedantic. Cell phones lack the field strength to ignite vapors and they are not known to produce a lot of sparks. Short answer, despite all the hubbub from the media (those purveyors of truth), there is no chance your cell phone can light gasoline vapors.
I saw a gas station fire in Saudi Arabia one time. Seems to be a thing over there.

DeleteThese are the same people who love to lecture us about how terrible the US is and how we should embrace their lifestyle.
ReplyDeleteYou know the people will blame it on the Jews or Mr. Trump or both.
