Art, 

Certified or certifiable ?  Oxygen is quite stable. It's possible what this
guy really meant to convey was that oxygen when flowing through an
improperly designed, poorly cleaned system is hazardous.  But when a
properly designed and properly cleaned system is used boosting oxygen
either with a Haskel Booster or oil-free compressor is not a problem at all. 

Haskel International Inc. manufactures gas boosters that are designed for
safely boosting oxygen to 5,000 psi (345 bar)

It seems to me some folks out there love to make up reasons to support
their misinformation.
