[Stoves] cost of stoves

[Richard Stanley]

Jeff,
   Certainly the highest quality comes out of the most responsive and  
accountable producer––and that is almost always the producer who is  
most exposed to their own community of consumers...
That's the fundamental premise. Blend in the increasing cost of  
transport due to peak oil /and environmental regulation and, the  
power of the internet for marketing, and you have this interesting  
new inversion of the traditional or even the globalised devolution of  
corporate  commercial model.
Ideas shared globally but products produced locally..
Co-vention  not invention, becomes the convention.
