Subject: RE: John Denver - 60's Folk Singer
The actual story about the gas tanks was that Denver ran a camp for underprivalaged kids. During the gas crisis, and with the prices rising, he had the tanks installed so that the buses that take the kids would have fuel. When the press got wind of the story, they turned it around to make it sound like he was using the gas on his cars and such, so Denver had the tanks removed.
