Back in '73... piped up the old fart... we were discussing alternative heat sources and of course wood stoves came up. My Grandmother, having heated and cooked with a wood stove for near 70 years, before moving to a small house with oil heat and a gas stove, said, "What are you crazy? Turn up the damn thermostat."

She was well aware of the difficulty, mess and drawbacks of wood. So am I.

Wood pellet manufacture and transportation is how energy intensive?
