Agreed. Since we didn't have electricity or running water in my house until
1971 C>E> , we heated with a pot belly stove in which we burned coal) and
cooked on a huge wood burner stove with hot water tanks attached. We always
kept a kettle full of water on the coolest part of each srove. Failure to do
so meant a VERY sore and raspy throat in the morning along with cracked lips
and itchy skin.
