# I did a calculation that "Whenever Gasoline is more than $.95 per  
litre, it is cheaper to drive on Pellets costing $450 per tonne or  
less". Here in Nova Scotia, Canada, Gasoline is about $1.38 per litre.

# The BIG THING with teh much more expensive pellets is their  
widespread availability. Of course, when "at home", or where one has  
"assured access to suitable chips", use chips.

Best wishes,

Kevin
