All you need is a leak in your fuel line and a spark and the consequences
would be worse; gasoline is much more flammable and burns hotter than
propane. Let's not get out of hand.

I've also heard that if you mix freon and a heat source (ie, cigarette),
the freon changes chemically into nerve gas...

I am not implying propane is a good idea, just stating what might or
might not be obvious...
