[NSRCA-discussion] Activities for a Sunday ,, was Too Quiet

[Bob Richards]

Speaking of Coleman, I have a Coleman lantern that will run either on Coleman fuel (whatever that may be) or unleaded gasoline (whatever THAT may be). :-)

Remember, (or, really, be informed) that the white gas I used in the mid-1940's came out of a pump at a small gas station near our house.  It came out of the same type pumps that were used to pump automobile gas; in fact, it was in the same row as the rest of the pumps.  It seemed to work perfectly for my purpose of the (then) spark ignition Ohlsson & Rice engines.  And, even then, Coleman fuel was considered by folks to be not white gas,but something entirely different.  As a kid, I was never told the difference, if, even then, the "adults" knew the difference, or even if there was a difference.  I don't know, to this day.
