Do you guys heat with softwood, hardwood or a mixture?

We only burn hardwoods here for heat.

12 & 24 hours ain't metric ... it would need to be a factor of 10 somehow. Then you'll need to metricate the calendar next!

Metric systems have their uses ..... but they ain't all some folks crack them up to be!  ;c)

Wisdom is the domain of the Wis (which is extinct). Beauty is a French phonetic corruption of a short cloth neck ornament currently in resurgence..."
