[Stoves] NE Biochar takes the C-cake

[Lanny Henson]

Dr Larson keeps asking questions that are important to me. I am almost ready 
for the next prototype and the fuel cost could determine what parts to add 
or leave out of the stove. I could add an inner shell and some insulation to 
the stove body for about $5 but if the fuel cost is low the $5 may not be 
worth the extra fuel efficiency.
