Fair comment Paul and we do see some discussion on these fossil fuels
but it isn't strictly in the [stoves] mission statement and often
leads to  arguments. I'll tolerate discussing anything that helps
disseminate information to help people in need but not if it leads to
arguments on climate change where there are better places for that.

Tom Miles will be the final arbiter on that.
