Recently I was in the Blue Seal Feed store and they had a new corn stove operating... I watched it work for some few minutes and needless to say, I was intrigued. I would rather not buy corn retail from Blue Seal... too expensive(or I'm too cheap), but it got me to thinking about raising corn for heating. Is there anyone out there running one of these stoves? I was wondering how many pounds a day they would burn. As I get older, I am looking at easier ways to heat without giving in to the oil barons and the thrill of cutting my own wood seems to be wearing thin lately. It sure would seem to me that corn would be easier than wood. I was just wondering how many acres of corn it would take to get thru a winters heating. Would it be unreasonable to assume you would burn a bushel a day and an acre produces about 120 + - bushels ? 
   I would rather burn corn or wood regardles of price rather than send OPEC money for oil. <!-- s:wink: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=":wink:" title="Wink" /><!-- s:wink: -->
