AT2 (AW)" <hartbejm@cvn71.navy.mil>; Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2006 13:56:03 -0400; IIRC, the main advantages of nitrogen are that a) it doesn't expand as much (or at all? Can't remember) as much as regular air does and b) doesn't absorb moisture. Really, for 99.9% of drivers out th; /html/shotimes/2006-08/msg00004.html (10,463 bytes)
