[Stoves] report with disappointing results from cleaner cookstoves

[Xavier Brandao]

Dear Crispin, Andrew,

Thanks for your clarifications about your point of view.
So to summarize, you think there is nothing wrong with the study or its 
methodology. In that case you disagree with Nikhil who//thinks this 
study is plain rubbish.

Then it seems to me we should be grateful to the study authors. We have 
to give credit when credit is due. This study gives some serious 
indications that improved cookstoves may not have a positive impact on 
pneumonia, that's a good progress.
Now, we need to know if improved cookstoves can have a positive impact 
on other diseases.

Dear Jock,

/"The problem I see is that we are too focused on stove technology. We 
are not looking at the context in which the problems exist."
/Indeed. We are interested in solving problems in the first place, not 
to make stoves for the sake of making stoves. We need to zoom out from 
time to time, to see if what we do still make sense./

/Xavier
