Rocket Stove

I had never heard of a rocket stove before, but this is pretty dang cool. They were/are apparently being introduced in Rwanda and other wretchedly poor places as a more effective means of cooking food. I think it would be nice to have at a cabin in the woods.

we went snow shoeing yesterday up at south fork. it was beautyeous and a good time was had by all.
they make stoves like this in guatemala. they not only save wood but they get the smoke out of the house, keep little kids from falling into the fire, and keep mom's hair and clothes out of the fire.
