My memory is having a "senior moment". Forgot why we all got hooked on hp steels vs. lp steels. Hp or lp, X amount of gas in the tank is X amount. What were (or are) the perceived advangages of hp over lp? Currently, more and more shops are either refusing to fill hp's or charging twice the price of lp fills. Wha's happenin'?
