At 60 yrs of age , yes jd , I've given it a lot of thought. And I live in woods and have plenty of wood for heat , just not plenty of body and energy to harvest it for the next 20 yrs. Here's my plan... outdoor stove fueled with coal AND a retractable "greenhouse" to pull over in the winter (cent. MI ) Have any of you ever walked into an unheated greenhouse in the middle of winter on a sunny day ? Keeps the wind out and the heat in and collects the solar heat all at the same time and is cheaper than any of the other choices. Now , granted , I live in the woods in a ranch style home and I don't care what it "looks" like in the winter. We're talking about times when survival means more than vanity. On a sunny day in Jan. I won't need any heat from fuel. Cold is bad but WIND is the killer. I will have NO wind. Yea I'm cheap , but isn't it really NET gain that counts here? If you got to spend 2-300,000 to be energy effecient , then you aren't.. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!
