It's actually even dumber than smoking. Igniting gasoline with a lit
cigarette requires very specific conditions that are suprisingly hard
to create (though certainly not hard enough to make smoking at a gas
station safe). An open flame fed by LPG,though..A little vapor blown
the wrong way....kaBOOM!
