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. Color coding may not be the complete answer.

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.
