A few threads ago you posted a link to a site that described an exploding tank incident in Florida several years ago. I would have posted this question in that thread but wasn't sure if anyone would see it since it has scrolled down the page a bit.

Anyway, in that article they mention the defective alloy that was used for so many years. I've just purchased a used tank and immediately got a VIP, but now I'm paranoid. Is there any way for me to determine what alloy was used in my tank?

Regards,
Barry
