EPA vs Non-EPA

Send me a PM if you're stopping in your travels and need some road suds - Wednesday is chimney building day here, which I can't bail on after waiting eight weeks for the date, but it just might work!

 

Like gramma used to say: "it's em ole bombs..."

 

Even if there was no such thing as an "EPA" approved stove people would still be complaining about the problems associated with trying to burn wet wood.
I don't believe older stoves are less finicky about burning wet wood at all. Find an old 1/2 cubic foot box stove and try to burn wet wood in it. Good luck.
Some people did burn wetter wood years ago. It was not "fun". Myths told by those who wnat to denigrate the (mandated) science behind modern stove construction which serves to attempt to have less impact on the clean air we all have a right to.
With 7.4 billion people on this marble we're not going to have pristine air to breathe, but we can do what we can to have cleaner air. Burn as clean as you can. Do your job. GAF.

 

Daaamn!

I like this guy's style.

Barnaclebob your new here, so you may not be aware that if you continue down this path, we may have to determine the airspeed of an unladen swallow.

 

I want to know the maximum downhill velocity of a hoop snake...

 

Is that a coiled, or uncoiled hoop snake.

 

Would this be coiled?

 

Yep, they're way faster than the uncoiled variety.

 

It's my understanding when coiled in such a fashion their downhill velocity is so great the friction against the air molecules causes global warming...

 

Then we must outlaw coiling of hoop snakes.


But to be certain, I have lots of varying hillside, if you send me at least a dozen coiled hoop snakes, I will apply for the government grant to study the effects.

May need a dozen uncoiled ones also.
A proper scientific study requires a control group as well.

I wouldn't want to expend 5 years worth of study, only to find the data collected invalidated due to lack of a control group.

 

They were just put on the endangered species list. No longer can you take one out of the wild or handle it in any way. The largest concentration known was near the Keystone pipeline which is why it was halted. I completely understand the governments motives. Gotta go, my spotted owl sandwich is ready...

 

Eat the hoop snakes. They are just going to fart and produce more methane.

 

Technically that's an ouroboros. Just sayin '

 

Bless you...
