I googled these terms "gas fueling explosion" and came up with several =
sites. Here is the URL for the first one on the list. =
http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/weekly/aa062399.htm Although it =
is an Urban Legend site, if you read the article you will find that =
Motorola warns consumers that cell phones should not be used in a number =
of situations, including while fueling vehicles. =20
I don't know if there are any documented reports of cell phones causing =
sparks which led to explosions, but I'd just as soon be safe than sorry.
