"Blowing smoke?" That was presented as an idea, a suggestion
for getting around high prices at the fuel dock, not as something
I've done.

You haven't come up with a single, credible reason why it wouldn't
work. The objections you cam eup with were silly, and I shot them
down one by one.

You're arguing just to argue. I don't know why this topic triggered
such hostlity in you. Maybe you're one of those people who resists
anything new.

Alternatively, maybe you're just a dickhead.

I almost never fuel my boat by any method other than with jugs. What's the
mysterious problem that Jim has when he tries to pour a liquid from one
container into another?

Jim Tried it. Jim thought it was a waste of time and trouble. Jim's problem
was that his time was much too valuable to be schlepping jerry jugs full of
gas some 200 yards to fuel a boat. The money saved just wasn't worth the
trouble. There were other reasons but that was the main one. I understand it
is the only option for some and I feel sorry for them.
