Our luck ran out...perhaps
I usually walk about checking our oak tree leaf lines. Sort of a early
warning that an oak is in decline since it is easier to take out a sick tree than a dead one. I live in the woods. Today may tree guy tells me I have Oak Scorch and it killed a tree I thought was viral. Seems it is bacterial in nature and attacks ~80 % of the trees on my land. This is a bummer. Luckily we have Pine and White Oaks about and I introduced a few other tress like Hollies, Maples, Cherries, Kousa and others but if this gets on our forest will be a field. Below site is dated 2002.

With oil the way it is I'd guess wood stoves may come back and cord wood. Bill -- S Jersey USA Zone 5 Shade http://www.ocutech.com/ High tech Vison aid |

With oil the way it is I'd guess wood stoves may come back and cord wood. Bill For years, our rental unit has had a wood stove. We lived there before kids and we built our house. A clean and well ordered wood stove is a wonderful way to heat. C We had a total electric house built in 1970. KW hours were about .03. In 1972 KW hours went to ~ .14 . Good news the house was well insulated ( not super insulated). Babies were coming and I could not afford the electric so we purchased an Effel Belgian wood stove. Worked great and held over night usually. Added a catalytic device and wood consumption went from 5 cords to 3 . Currenty gas rules here. I had 3 solar panels on our roof for hot water but the heat exchangers kept failing putting antifreeze in our house water. So no longer used. I noticed a nearby home has a total voltaic array.
