10 Feb 1925   Gas storage
In 1925, the first waterless gas storage tank was placed in service in Michigan City, Indiana, by the Northern Indiana Gas and Electric Co. Instead of a water trough design, the gasholder had a piston to adjust pressure as the amount of stored gas varied. The gas-tight joint between the piston and the holder walls was made by a tar seal. Steel plates, each 20 x 32 feet , were used to construct the tank, which was 105-ft diameter and 160-ft height, with a capacity of one million cubic feet of gas. It was erected by Bartlett-Hayward Company, Baltimore.

D. Allan Bromley
Died 10 Feb 2005 at age 78 (born 4 May 1926).
David Allan Bromley was a Canadian-American physicist who was considered the “father of modern heavy ion science” for his pioneering experiments on both the structure and dynamics of atomic nuclei. He was a leader in developing particle accelerators detection systems and computer-based data acquisition and analysis systems. While at Atomic Energy of Canada (1955-60) he installed the first tandem Van Der Graaff accelerator. He was founder and director (1963-89) of the A.W. Wright Nuclear Structure Laboratory at Yale University, which has produced more experimental nuclear physicists than any other facility. During this time he became active on numerous national and international science policy boards. From 1980-89, he was a member of the White House Science Council.
