Dear Friends--Check out the new grass pellet stove at Cornell.

Also, check the link to Sustainability at Cornell.  Many local folks assume 
that Cornell mostly supports Big Ag ( or Big Whatever), which is obviously 
true to some extent, but there are a wide range of sustainability efforts 
with which the campus is involved and to which Cornell is heavily committed.

See also http://www.utilities.cornell.edu/utl_ldcchp.html for info on the 
new combined heat and power plant in the works at Cornell.  This is going 
to significantly reduce the carbon foot print of the University.

Have a wonderful weekend.   Tom
