This story reminded me of an incident years ago when I purchased an
abandoned steel building with the intention of moving it to use in my
business. Poking around among the weeds in the gravel parking lot I
discovered the standpipes to an underground tank. Exploring as best I could
with a short stick in the fading twilight, it seemed as though the tank was
full and smelled like gas!

Visions of wealth, in the form of a couple of thousand gallons of gasoline,
evaporated the next morning when I hurried back to the site with a longer
stick. I discovered I owned about 1,995 gallons of water with a jerry can
worth of gas floating on top!

Too bad, would have fueled my Vanagon for 40,000 miles! (RVC)
