Correct, and caught on camera.
Where?

I remember seeing a story about this subject on the ABC sometime last year. In the story they contacted all the world's major oil companies and many newspapers. To that date there had been NO RECORDED cases of mobile phones causing spontaneous combustion at service stations. Most stories are exagerated by newspapers (hard to believe I know) and in 100% of cases, turned out to be caused by other factors.

Cheers, HH.



PS:Well it seems that I must be getting old, the story was from 2003 not last year, anyway here it is.
