I doubt that. If the fuel had been stored "...as required..." not
just in the basement.... then the wiring likely would have met
Category 500 or similar, and it's doubtful there would have been
an electrical fire.
My point is, it's a BAD time to mess with FDNY. Besides the WTC
memory, West Warwick is not that far away from NYC.
