<LOL> Yeah, I bought it new from a shop that refilled on site, so I just
assumed I'd always have my pretty new cylinder. I moved and all the shops
here swap because they don't fill on site. I do believe they sell the gnome
created tanks. I do miss my shiny new tank though. <sniff, sniff>

That's why you usually buy the tank from the dealer in the first place - you
get a rusty old beater tank in the first place and never have any higher
expectations ;-)
Did you actually buy NEW regular-sized tanks ?/ I'm not sure I've ever seen
really new tanks, except the little portable ones. I thought they were made
by gnomes in the forest, and then beaten up and rusted on the way to the gas
supplier the first time !!
