John, I agree with you on where energy costs will go.I think (at present)we need to focus on increasing and improving insulation in both old and new construction as well as expanded use of wind breaks.Have you considered using whole logs as a means of cutting labor? Maybe some way to mechanically feed the whole log into the fire and locating the burner away from the house with the use of heated water as a means of moving the heat to where it is needed without the concern of setting something on fire? OR ?

I once read an article on building a solar collector pond that was filled half way with salt water(in a bag?). Seems like I read where the bottom layer got to over 100 degrees. Maybe it was in Israel where it was developed? Been a long time since I read the article and only vaguely remember parts of it.
