One point. Oxygen doesn't burn. It promotes combustion, though.
I went through that subject on another site a few months ago. I tried to explain to the guy that oxygen doesn't burn it just allows hydrocarbons to burn.
The guy came back and said "Well..... what do you think makes an acetylene torch burn then????????HHHHMMMM I replied ....... the acetylene????....... .... Didn't get an answer. I even supplied a data sheet on oxygen stating it was a NON COMBUSTIBLE GAS. But he wasn't buyin' it.
