[Philmont]: Shipping stoves - rules change?

There was apparently a rules change on shipping stoves on 7/14. One of our
crew advisers is getting a complete run-around from UPS, DOT, state patrol,
etc. because no one can tell him how to package stoves for shipping under
the new rules. No one can tell him how to "purge a fuel bottle". Emptying
it and airing it out for a day apparently is not sufficient anymore.

Does anyone have more information? If we find out more, I'll post it to the
list.

Thanks,
