Um, dissagree. Dont loose sleep worrying about it but dont think compreesed
air tanks cant go boom. Some years ago a dear friend of mine was doing a
brake job and a tank he had under a work bench next to where he was working
blew the end cap off hitting him in the face. The force pretty much caved in
the side of his head. Obviously there was something wrong with the compressor
but be aware there is potential for malfunction. Probably a one and a million
chance but after that I am always aware of placement.

If you really worry about it, don't...
Compressed air doesn't have _that_ much force. It's not
explosive. It's just, well, air. It's not like it's a steam boiler
sputnik wannabee. :-O
