[Stoves] Stove costs

[Paul Olivier]

Jan,

1) Here are in Vietnam there are many people who make it on $2.00 US a day.
2) There are some minority people who make it on $10.00 US per month.
Many people in the first group buy bottled gas for about $20 US per bottle.
If we sell gasifiers for roughly the same price as a one bottle of gas plus
the stove needed to burn this gas,
then we have surely satisfied the needs of the first group.
Those in the second group will need a subsidy.
