Hey David,
I can relate to this story. I spent the first 13 years of my life in
a tiny old shack on our farm that was heated only by one wood-burning

Louise is right that the popularity of
huge homes has increased the amount
of fuel our nation consumes.

I would be wary of anyone who also claims that
1) there are no adverse affects of second-hand smoke;
2) there is no connection between the use of chlorofluorocarbons and
