hydrogen is flammable

Aug 29, 2006 14:49

Here's an interesting article I found on the NYTimes online. Yay Maine for pioneering non-petroleum energy sources ... but somehow the logic of this sentence escapes me:
Because hydrogen is flammable, the electrolyzer and eight cylinders with an overall capacity of 2,080 cubic feet of the gas are stored in a wood and concrete shed in the woods behind the center.

So because hydrogen is flammable, it's stored in a wooden shed (which is flammable) in the middle of the woods (which has plenty of wood, as the name suggests, and is therefore also flammable)? Huh.
