why do compressed gas tanks hold pressure in the thousands of ps1, but equal size steel piping psi rates 100?

Answer:

I guess they figure that if they tell you that it was a false alarm 99 times then the 100th time when it is not a false alarm you would not pay any attention to it. However, what these people are not thinking about is that if you are pulled out of your dorm 99 times for an alarm and you never see smoke or fire damage then the 100th time you may just ignore the alarm as well. Sounds like the place you are staying at has security problems combined with some idiotic people living there who pull fire alarms because they think it is funny. ADDED: When I was in the dorms and some idiot would pull the alarm for the fun of it, we would have fire trucks and police show up as well. They are trying to guard against the boy who cried wolf syndrome. The school used to try to tell us there was an invisible dye on the alarms that would show on your hands under a black light if you pulled an alarm. However, I noticed that the number of false alarms never went down and that after each one no one ever checked the hands with a UV light for the dye. So much for that story. I have no idea what they did to stop it. I was out of the dorms a little later. For all I know, they are still having a problem with it today.
frequent mcdonalds on a daily basis. order a number 1 large with a coke. follow that with a trip to dunkin donuts. i would suggest a dozen chocolate frosted donuts with some sort of latte. repeat this for roughly 2-3 months. you will have the *** of your dreams.
