did you include the raws needed to purify gas into propane? myszaq 19:16, 7 January 2007 (EST)
- No, I didn't, good catch, fixed. Ceselb 09:21, 8 January 2007 (EST)

I made a comparison of using gas against using only coal. If you have all the drills and short transport ways, using coal seems to be better than using propane. --LimSup 11:12, 26 May 2007 (EDT)
