    I didn't click the link cause I saw it on the news tonight.

    The fire which engulfed the car at the gas pumps was caused by a cell phone. Apparently the driver was on the phone, in the car and upon getting out of the car and touching the pump a spark caused a fire.

    Wasn't the cell phone thing dis proven by Mythbusters? Could have been just the static caused by him shuffling out of his car. Or a myriad of things. I know I would have run like hell though if I had been delivering.

    Just found this...
