[Stoves] TLUD benifit not mentioned.

One of the benefits of a TLUD stove/burner that I have not seen the 
designers take credit for is that TLUDs handle moist fuel better than bottom 
lit designs (if there is such a design) because top lit designs vaporize the 
moisture in the fuel a little at a time as the fire burns down through the 
fuel bed. When bottom lighting a fire, the moisture of all the fuel has to 
dry to the point that it will
burn.

I suppose the same is true for Rocket stoves since the sticks are fed in as 
needed.
