[Stoves] Air power Re: Burning saw dust in TLUD stove

[Richard Stanley]

Not to get political but your translation of the comment  that having hope won't kill you-- nearly did here in Obamaland.. but he survives more in tact than many ever thought possible-- and probably for a far longer reign too.

On dedza pottery you must have gottn up there more recently. Greatly stop enroute to from Lilongwe, eh ? 
On stone crushing I have to wonder why a new form of post quake architecture has not evolved yet...Homes built up entirely out of rubble removed ex crushing or ith a minimum of same. Probably has eh ?

Andi Michel was working on that.  It was on ProBEC’s list, now sadly departed.  The GTech guys are well advanced on looking at how to make strong things from the rubble – exactly the sort of skills we need for stoves.
