"I guess it is true"

[cellboy]

One of our residents, a nurse at Kaiser, walked into my office saying, "I guess it's true". She works in emergency. Apparently a 60 yr old man was pumping gas, and his cell phone rang, he picked up the call. Suddenly saw it spark, ignited the gas, and he was on fire. She said his burns are pretty bad. Legs, arms, front of body. His clothing disintegrated. Poor guy :(

Rule of thumb: Diesel burns, gasoline explodes.
