[Stoves] simplistic view compost and charcoal for two cents

Probably more imnportantly is they can compliment each other as the charcoal
enriched soil will retain the nutrients from the compost better.
So get a TLUD stove,  cook your food on biomass scraps without smoke,  and 
throw
the composted table scraps in with the charcoal put it into your gardin to 
grow better fuel
for yourself and the stove.

My stoves are still a bit shakey but I am using less kerosene, producing 
less smoke and growing better edible weeds like Amarath, Basil, Malabar 
spinach and Moringa. The latter I hope to copice and get fuel and food.
