Electric-geothermal heat can be very costly in areas with high electric-rates and severe cold - so don't be so hard on wood burning. Geothermal is not always such a great deal. If it was, I'd install it.
I heat 100% with wood and am also on 100% solar electric. My house and barn both have wood furnaces, but in my house I've also got a soap-stone wood stove.
