Hell, what's the purpose of this insane law, anyway? Got any
info on that part?

It's for safety purposes. The general public does not have the
required skills and training to pump gasoline, ergo you need a
professional for the job to keep accidents from happening.
(/sarcasm_off)

I've seen some idiots before who would talk on the phone or smoke a
cigarette while pumping gas, but IMHO I find a state law telling me
that I'm not competent to pump gas very insulting.

Safety my ass. It is a make work law.

BTW... Cell Phones really don't cause fires at gas stations.
