    Gasoline on a cool metal plate vs on a hot, black road surface should make quite a bit of difference to how much vapor there is available for flame propagation.

      iPhone 4 was years later. Only the first iPhone was out then. And yes, by far far far the coolest phone at the time. First true smart phone I'd say.

      Which country? 67 countries have English as an official language, and that’s not counting those who have English as the ubiquitous language so it doesn’t need to be made official. (lol sorry to be pedantic but it’s the internet, right? I agree though, what a language!) Oh, edit to give this context: I’m from a non-American, English-speaking country where English is not an official language. Yet.
