Anyone ever heard of a corn stove? My neighbor just bought one...

for $1100 because of this year's expected (gas) heating bill. I've never heard of it. Did some research, and apparently they have been around since 1969 and Jimmy Carter had one. link to more info: http://www.backwoodshome.com/articles/monroe42.html

It's just so ironic, as I sit here in my home in Indiana, surrounded by corn fields. So, anyone have one or know someone who does?

1. Yes I've seen them before.

They burn real clean and give off a nice heat.
