  1. It always has been for those of us who live in the woods. I've burned wood all my life to heat the house. But it won't work in my truck.


  2. but if we did that, the treehuggers would cry some more.

  3. Define 'cost' please - is this in pure monetary terms or does it take into account the renewability of the source for instance?

  4. Not if that wood happens to be my garden shed!

  5. I can't get the wood into my oil tank. Please help!!!!

  6. It is for me as I have several ready available sources for firewood and the wood heating stoves in my home. Most folks don't realize that wood heat is far better than oil or electric or gas. You just have to have the energy and drive to go out and get it. Keeps you in good shape.

  7. Depends entirely on context - if I live in a forest, true.

    If I live in the Saudi desert, false.

    But this is only the financial cost; there are many other costs to consider...
