Have you looked at corn stoves, they work well.


Are they really cost effective tho?


If the price of corn is low, they can be cost effective.

The ones we were looking can be seen at http://www.GrainStovesInc.com
They burn wheat, rye, and corn so if the price of corn is high one
season, you might be able to get one or the other grain cheaper. The
nice thing about these stoves is they are environmentally friendly too.

How is burning grain environmentally friendly?

Not as smelly as burning corpses.

You dont need gas chambers first either.

Killing a lot of people and putting them in the ground like the
Northwest Coast Indians used to do with salmon, especially that chum,
that chum salmon, well, nobody eats the chum, maybe the eggs, well,
anyway, putting those people in the ground would cut down on them
burning fossile fuels and it would make the grass green. So how does
that compare to burning food? It seems like you eat the corn and you
gasify the cob and associated waste material.
