My only concern about having this mailed (US Mail) in a supply drop is
there may be a heightened sense regarding the shipping/mailing of such
substances,  in light of recent events.  Does someone on the list know
what the mail regulations may be now regarding the mailing of
flammable substances such as GAZ canisters?  Is it ok if the contents
are clearly identifed on the outside? =20
