A friend of mine asked his new girl friend to help him fill his water tank.
While he was working down below about a 1/2 hour later she replied that all
three are full. His reply was that I have only 1 water tank.

That's the kind of thing I was thinking about.

Color coding may not be the complete answer.

No, but if they were color coded, he could have said - put water in the
blue tank fill (or whatever it was) rather than just saying fill the water
tank.

I can tell all kinds of stories about people who have put stuff in places
that they don't belong. One fuel truck driver put a whole tankful of fuel
into a school furnace room where there used to be a tank, but they'd
switched from fuel oil to natural gas, and had taken the tank out. Another
time the guy dumped a load into a monitoring well. And third delivery
person was delivering pool chemicals and managed to generate chlorine gas
by putting a chemical in the wrong tank, which meant they had to evacuate
kids from a swimming pool in January with snow on the ground - they
couldn't even go back to the lockers because there was gas there.

The good news is, nobody EVER does it a second time.

Well, I know someone who almost did it a second time but was stopped
short by his brand new, color coded label plates...
