I guess coal puts out the most warming heat , then wood is next......I
used to buy rabbit food from an antiquated old feed mill /store that had
been in the family for eons....In the winter I would go in the office to
write out a check while he loaded up my bird food, rabbit pellets,
whatever....and just bask in the amazing warmth radiating from an old
potbellied stove....The man would come back in there, dusting his hands
off, and there I would be, soaking up that WARM heat like a big pussy
cat....I must admit I visited with him a few minutes purely to soak up
the waves of soothing heat coming from that old stove.....Made it easier
to face getting out in that icy Illinois weather.....Jeannie T
