I prefer to calculate the actual answer, taking into account sloppy workmanship used in the construction, than use theoretical maths and then stand about flapping "but my sums are correct" while everyone is poisoned.
Man I'm on fire today.

So anyone care to guess the capacity of that tank? I'd guess it's about 10m tall and 8m diameter which gives a volume of ~500 cubic meters. So 100 gallons is .1% of that capacity.
.1% could easily be the error you get using SY's crude maths, treating it as a perfect cylinder.
Doogie OTOH seems quite content with sloppy workmanship and is precisely the kind of person who should not be involved with anything of this nature.
