Hello all! Does anyone remember the huge (at least 150 ft.)Michcon Storage tanks that were located around the city. The one I remember best was on Schaefer & Lyndon on the N'west side. I was pretty young when they demolished it (1972/73). At he very top it had a neon sign saying " Gas is Best". I was wondering does anyone have a picture of it. Thanks!

Welcome to the Forum, Ypsiman!

Besides scrolling down through the open threads to look for a previous thread on your subject of interest, there are a huge number of archived threads that are closed to new comments but which might have already addressed your subject.

Here is how to do a keyword search through the active and archived threads:

1) click on "SEARCH SITE" at left
2) click on "CLICK HERE TO SHOW FORUM SEARCH ONLY".
3) in the "Search by keyword" section, type in the keyword(s) you want to use in your search. If you are using multiple keywords, you should probably choose "AND (match all keywords)"
4) click on the "Perform Search" button at the bottom

It always helps to do a search before starting a new thread, since the odds are good that your subject has been previously discussed. After reading through the previous thread(s) and posts that were returned by your keyword search, if there is still an aspect of your subject that hasn't been covered, then create a new thread using a more tightly focused subject header and posting.
