Thanks for the ping.

IMHO, the real problem was the banning of the solvents formerly used to prep the area for bonding and replacing them with the "environmentally-friendly" ones.

This was discussed heavily on bones' thread, which I can't seem to locate at the moment. Also, bones has been banned.

I think they were using Halon to prep the tanks for those spot repairs after moving the tanks to Florida. They may have been using it on the bare tank at Micoud also? That's what I heard during the early press conferences...
