Won't stop using my wood fireplace

I love my wood burning fireplace. It provides radiant heat and a soothing ambiance during a dreary winter. My neighbors don't mind because most people are typically in their homes with the windows shut. However, when they are outside, I do receive compliments on how pleasant it smells. My sister-in-law in Cincinnati also enjoys her wood burning fireplace and she suffers from chronic asthma.

Ever since the creation of fire, mankind has burned wood. The evolution of the gas or electric fireplace only created a semblance of the real thing.

This summer, I plan to smoke spareribs over a charcoal grill. Spooky, isn't it?
