is this the earliest reference to "pellet stoves" on this site?

I was curious when the first reference to pellet stoves was mentioned in this forum-unfortunately I wasn't here but the earliest seems to be in 2005 by this link:
https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/forums/search_results/306a257fbd056423259739d8bb936ef4/

Doesn't seem that long ago but I can't locate anything earlier.

I know it shows I joined the forums in 2006
but we have been talking about pellet stove with Creig's Email based hearth discussions all the way back to I think 1995 or 1996
