Could be Marc, good point. When a SCUBA tank is tested (hydrostaticly), its pumped up w/ 2 or 3x the amount that the tank can hold pressure wise, using water. This is to check for an amount of expansion, and drilled if it fails. I'm sure DOT requirements use basically the same proceedure. And the a$$hole$ capped it and forgot to drain it.

Thats incredibly funny laugh my a$$ off

Fact of the week
The origin of "love" as the score zero in tennis is debated, but two main theories prevail. One suggests it's derived from the French word "l'oeuf" (egg) which resembles the shape of the number zero. The other proposes it's related to the Dutch word "lof" meaning "honour" as players might be playing for honour when scoreless.
