[OSM-newbies] LPG sold in cans

[Jeffrey Martin]

That's probably what I'll do. Shop=LPG or Shop=LPG in bottles.

I think there was a post on one of the mailing lists about how to list
the fuels available at a station. Here in Korea LPG is usually sold
at it's own station separate from regular stations, although they
are usually near a regular station.

There should probably be something about the
kind of vehicles as well. I drove a truck briefly in
the US. One time, I pulled off the road where the sign said diesel,
but when I got to the station it was diesel for cars.
It's the same diesel, but my truck was too big to
fit.
