Pooja;   cc List, Otto, etal:

  1.  Not sure if there is a longer questionnaire.  Glad to look at it, if 
there is one.

  2.  I think the existing tests by Jetter and others won’t answer you question 
on relative importance.  In my mind two of the most important are annual costs 
and time spent in cooking.  Jim has indicated he might add something on time 
spent in cooking - but it is not there now.  Of course there is nothing on 
annual costs - but a few extra look-up tables might be able to add something on 
that parameter - if you can determine stove lifetime, the cost of different 
fuels, the possibility of selling char,  etc.  You will still be missing the 
issues of the stove looking good and being able to do multiple taks .

  3.  Some of the best survey work along these lines has been done by Dr.  
Priya Karve of Pune.  I add her twice, but believe there is a better third 
address.
