        I couldn't find any using Google.  Don't know why.  Oliver Stone 
would, of course, claim it's a conspiracy...
        Diesel and "gas" cans are made from the same polyethylene plastic, 
only the color differs.  I'd just buy a regular red gas can and spray paint 
it yellow to eliminate any confusion over what type of fuel it contains.
