Oil & Fuel Ventless fuel cans...

That's me. I have 2-5 gallon cans for kerosene, 1-5 gallon for diesel, 1-5 gallon gas can for mixed outboard fuel, 1-2 gallon can for lawn mower, generator, etc. and a few 1 gallon cans for chainsaw and weedwacker.

I don't share the altruistic concern for the environment. I'm quite disillusioned with that whole movement since it seems that no one can decide what they are saving the environment from or what they are saving it for. Last year's environmental fads are today's environmental problems. I do care about it, but I've lost all trust that anyone really understands the situation enough to even know if there's a problem, let alone what the problem is or any hope of an effective solution.

For me the stupid new cans are just a PITA.

Next on the list will be geothermal heat pumps because they heat up the earth up and will let the lava out.

With the lava out and warmer earth from them it will add to more global warming.

I can echo all everyone has said.
I've never spilled as much fuel as since I've been forced to use these junk cans...

Just think, the same government that forced this dumb idea will soon be in charge of your health care, and seemingly every other aspect of our lives.. Free men are reduced to looking upon the guvmint as a surrogate mother..

It doesn't inspire confidence in the government when they take a simple gas can, make it complicated and more expensive, and it ends up spilling more fuel than was probably being vented in the first place.

Now when the government starts "fixing" something that is really complicated, I'm sure they can really mess it up.
