I wished I had taken notes. I did the write up today only because I knew I would lose it all otherwise. Hopefully some who were there can correct and amend - before we decide what to do next. We all put our own slant on things that interest us and everyone’s write-up will reflect who we talked to. Out of 100 there, I probably only talked to 20-25. Many will tomorrow start a few days at Aprovecho. Maybe they (Paul Andersion, Alexis Belonio, Christa Roth, Kirk Harris, etc.) can add to what I wrote. Unfortunately probably fewer that half there are subscribers to “stoves”.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal> I’d like to hear whether others thought the stove world is moving fast enough right now. A doubling time (of sales) of 1 year (maybe a little less) is damn good. I think a lot of the credit goes to GACC. But growth like that also takes time to get started - and Tom Miles gets a lot of credit for funding this list now since late 1995.
