No problem Dan - you answered my question, Thanks. Meanwhile, I solved my
probably (at least tempoarily- I can't do anything about Gore) Safety systems
has moved & I was able to track them down. If anybody else needs the info the

Modoc, IN (765) 853-5437 They will fill a 10 lb bottle for $234, which is

Thanks for the responses,
Ed
