You can't see me from this view, but I was on the other side. this was actually the steam explosion from the hot dog steamer on my cart. Damned city revoked my license after that too, how was I to know you can't use hydrogen instead of propane>? jerks!

If you are from the uk you know exactly what the steam lines are used for, though maybe you have only seen the hot water equivalent...its used for heating, heating the buildings, the domestic water etc.
