Agreed. In fact, when Christmas time comes, and I go up to my dad's house, I'm going to take her with me, so she can stand in front of his auxilliary heater... 50kBTU "Bullet" Heater.

Basically, a huge blower that burns diesel or kerosene and literally blows the fire out the front to heat the room/building/town.

It's rediculous, but it burns for all of 30-45 minutes to heat up the house from him being gone all day, and by then, the woodstove takes over.

Plus, it's 99.9% burn efficient, so there is no smoke from it, and you can run it indoors all day and it won't affect you. (We used to heat with it when the woodstove wasn't working due to chimney problems... or lack of a chimney, since it kinda fell down.)
