From "BigInch's Extremely simple theory of everything."

The trouble with finding a leak or creating a leak in high pressure steam is that you might first discover it after it's burned through your Nomex or cut your hand off or something. As BigInch suggested, this is one that I'd hand over to a hot tapping specialist.
