[Jewelry making - Article 00228] - [Orchid] Empyting long-unused acetylene torch

    A friend moving to the East Coast gave me an acetylene torch
    (acetylene tank only, using oxygen from the air) which she has not
    used in a couple of years.  Since I have a torch I wanted to donate
    it to a nearby art gallery that gives jewelry classes.  She told me
    that before I transport it, I should have it emptied professionally
    (i.e., take it to the gas place and swap it with an empty tank).  I'm
    happy to do that, but why couldn't I just take it out in the driveway
    (carefully) and open it up until all the gas is emptied?
