Dear List Just what is a "stove?"
I would suggest that it is important that we all know what a "stove" is, when we attempt to determine the difference between a "good stove" and a "poor stove.' When we ask Mr. Google, we get more than 7 million hits. However, the most common definitions seem to be typified by the one at http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/stove " 1a : a portable or fixed apparatus that burns fuel or uses electricity to provide heat (as for cooking or heating) " At http://stoves.bioenergylists.org/ , the stated purpose of the site is: "Our site is dedicated to helping people develop better stoves for cooking with biomass fuels in developing regions. " What about accepting the Merriam-Webster definition for a "stove?" Would anyone have a better definition for a "stove?" Best wishes, Kevin
