OK... I understand what you are saying ... but the precise point 
is that when you compare BG to oxy-acetylene, and realizing that 
the acetylene is basically just a hydrogen carrier- that the major 
difference in the two welding systems (BG being apparently hotter) 
must go back to the fact that BG has managed to provide a more 
potent oxidizer into flame mix than oxygen - since the hydrogen is 
present in both situations and the carbon in acetylene doesn't 
"detract".. so the difference in heat has to be in the oxidizer.

Would you agree with that way of looking at it or not?
