I have a habit of putting the cans on the ground, but it's one of those things you always wonder if there really is a danger or is it just an "old wives tale". You are the first person I've ever heard of that actually had a fire from static electricity. I'm very sorry such a horrible thing happened to you, but I hope all readers will heed your information and experience. It's kind of like the advice, "Don't run your blower during fueling because it can draw fumes down into the bilge which can explode, but DO run the blower after fueling to exhaust any leftover fumes." Important stuff many of us forget too often. I've always used 5 gallon cans because of the weight of the 25 gal dispensers, glad I have.

Thanks for warning us all.
