Hi Everyone,

we have known Ernie Wisner since our earliest days of attending the 
Natural Building Colloquiums, where you meet some of the most 
innovative people on the planet!

Please check out Ernie & his wife Erica's kickstarter for their 
exquisite new book on Rocket Mass Heaters (Erica, the author).

pledge a little bit, or a lot! they are on their final countdown now, 
so don't hesitate, it's a wonderful project to support:

What is a Rocket Mass Heater?

Rocket mass heaters are like a full-body personal sauna, keeping you 
deliciously comfortable with minimal fuel and pollution.  They can be 
a fun, all-natural green remodel project, and a super-stealthy way to 
enjoy off-grid comfort and security.  They use a special, 
clean-burning firebox to drive clean exhaust through an earthen 
masonry mass, which stores the heat and releases steady warmth.

The fire flows upside-down and sideways through natural draft - no 
moving parts to fail in a power outage.  The firebox draws out the 
flames and mixes them with air for better combustion.  The efficient 
firebox and the thermal mass storage bench save a LOT of fuel.  Most 
users report they now use 70-90% less fire wood compared with their 
old woodstove.  (Yes, that's 1/4 to 1/10 the 
firewood.)  http://www.ernieanderica.info/
