Subject: Re: Question about MOD regarding tank marking
Because there is no 9 gas unless you useing IANTD Strokemix, and there
is no 81 gas, and there is no anything like what you are talking.

If you would reach up and just take the cotton out of your ears for one

ORIENTATION of the bottle". 

Give me a break.
