/thread.asp?trid=6450 [Thanks to Joseph H for going beyond what could reasonably be asked of him, and getting us this information] has some added information, and it seem as if this is a NFPA (National Fire Prevention Assoc.) standard, and is reflected in that OSHA sites the NFPA standard, and it has recently been updated to reflect an opinion that filling a tank on the machine, that can easily be removed from the machine to fill, is NOT the proper safe method.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
