    I wonder how they will stop people trying to fill their cars from the BBQ bottle?silentC.

    Ha!Ha!Ha!......An image of people driving around in the not to distant future, towing a trailer with a BBQ in it, "that's a spare, in case I run out!", that has a hint of the old Aussie humor about it!
