Since winter is supposed to be over here in Missouri, and our woodpile is exhausted, and my is wife feeling the need for a fire to warm her bones, she has starting burning the chilrens' blocks, "shocked you say!!!!" I wasn't since, I have known her much longer than you, but none the less, she is smiling as she puts another load into the yawning mouth of our voracious two door woodstove, granted they are homemade blocks, which our 11 year old son made for them last Christmas, out of some cutouts from a stairway built last year. Her excuse is that we will be building another stairway soon, and so they can be replenished with a little more effort from our sons and make it a learning and homeschooling project as well. I think that might be a convenient rationalization of her socialistic tendencies, in order to gratify her flesh, or perhaps it is my inability to provide her with satisfactory firewood at this time of year,
rationalistically,
Brett
