Never did at the time. Had been doing it this way all my life without problems. Of course, out of the 1,000 responses to the video I've certainly taken a lot of "gas" for it. That's why I put the notation at that spot - to get people to shut up about it. I would probably do it differently if I had to do it again. Most likely would use a small propane bottle hooked to a burner torch that wasn't lit to keep it going until the gas pumped up from the tank. I've seen that done quite successfully since.
I have been quite struck by the number of people who watched this video that I thought was quite entertaining that seemed to see nothing but the faults in it and criticize them. Human nature, I guess. At least for some humans.
