No fire, just a lot of noise and gas. Had no idea we had a gas main of that size so close to the house... Just out of curiosity, does anyone know what kind of pressure something like that would carry? Like I said, it was at least 1/2 mile from the house, but sounded like it was no more than a couple hundred yards. Dug
