Hmm
	If they drive a decent sized sedan, I would set the damage at about
3D10 massive damage, since a gas explosions are mostly just heat and
flame. Perhaps have them get set on fire if they take a wound. Of course
this would depend on if you were using the new explosion rules or not. I
would say roll 3D10 and then divide hits to locations, not that 1d6
places hit for 3D10 stuff.

He he. I love how if you really didnt like it your only choice was I am
afriad blah blah.Reminds me of skewed polls on News sites. Choice A- I
love it. Choice B -I dont like it so I must be the one at fault.  As
opposed to choice C- "Hmm Me thinkest this sucks."
