[C320-list] Draining Fuel Tank

[Robert Seastream]

Since the fuel pickup tube extends to the bottom of the tank, as it  
sucks up fuel wouldn't it creating a 'stirring' action thus preventing  
growth?
In other news, I spent last week in Antigua on a catamaran; upon  
arriving home Sunday discovered I've caught a cold!  Go figure.
