cmp-shooter, thanks for describing those helium transport cylinders. I was referring to cryogenic transport, which isn't that common, and had forgotten my hazmat training on recognition of high pressure cylinders.

And even at 3000 psi (200 atmospheres), where the helium outweighs sea level air by a factor of about 40, it's weight is nothing compared to the steel that contains it.
