Several years ago when I worked for the electric company, we had 
lots of vehicles, some that used gas (even older big trucks) and 
some that used diesel.  There was a guy that drove a fuel truck 
carrying gas <underline>and</underline> diesel around at the end of every day and fueled 
all the vehicles.  Those guys may not always be the brightest or 
paying attention, so labeling the vehicles probably avoided alot of 
problems!
