I think the point has been made with this one.

So please people, stop whipping out your EPA mantra every time someone posts on the "Classic Stove Forum".

I don't care what someone burns, but I do care to make sure they are informed. One thing I like to make certain folks understand is that in MANY places, installing an older stove in one's home may cause things to fall apart with the insurance company. Reason I often tell people to check local codes and with the insurance first, is because I'd hate to see them spend money on a stove that they can't run in their home.

I've been accused of that being "anti-whatever" for this but to me, it's information that a person needs to know.
 
If the OP is going to rant in a post, he has to expect some other points of view to surface.

If it's just another thread to nowhere, what's the point? Rick

That is why I closed it three posts ago. It could continue to degenerate for decades.
