I disagree. As indicated by the NASA image passed around, the
problem is called "overpopulation"! Woodfired kilns are nothing
compared to the emmisions from coal fired power plants and thermal
damage to native fisheries caused by hot water releases from all power
plants.

And please, no more jokes about shooting oneself. I friend of mine did
just that last friday. He will be sorely missed...
