[PSUBS-MAILIST] Battery explosions

[Michael B Holt <tlohm@juno.com>]

Why does this happen?  

I can understand hydrogen buildup in sealed compartments.
A dead short on a 12v car battery, it seems, can rupture the 
battery case (I saw the result at Sears Automotive).

Other than that, what happens?
