<div> </div>
<div><strong>Thank you for the invitation to join your advisory panel, but I
have no understanding of stoves, and have not followed their development. I
doubt if I could offer any useful assistance to the project. As requested, I
have forwarded this invitation to several colleagues who may be in a better
position to participate, and told them to connect directly to you if
interested.</strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong>Thanks again, and hope your project can bring new advances to the
technology.</strong></div>
<div><strong></strong> </div>
<div><strong>Regards,</strong></div>
