And, besides, it's a greenhouse gas, so you really aren't gaining anything
by substituting it for CFC's.

Not so, Jim.  Yes propane is a green house gas but then so is CO2.
But CFC's are ozone depleters and prpane is not.  That is why
aerosol manufacturers changed to it years ago.  Also R134 contains
no chlorine and thus is not an ozone depleter.
