Someone please refresh my memory: Isn't the charcoal in the canister supposed to
collect gasoline fumes? I wonder if re-using the activated charcoal will even be
possible after the explosion. I suppose most of it will be contained in the oven
or microwave, but I'm sure the next dinner to be baked in said device will be a
big hit in the flavor department.

I know this will start an argument over the likelihood of an oven igniting the
released gasoline vapors, for that I apologize, but I still ask that you wait
until after I leave before turning the oven on.
