Subject: Re: Dumb and Dumber - storing helium in improper containers
Problem is that this is not so much stupidity as lax thinking.  Safe
tech diving requires considerable compulsiveness- do everything the same
way every time and don't make changes as you go along.  There is also
the factor of "familiarity breeds contempt"- thinking I've done this a
dozen times with no problems, I don't have to follow ALL the rules, I'll
remember that I didn't do X.
Complacency, Darwin's little helper...

PS ditto's on Dave's comments
