Lighting up wood fires, stoves: not so green.
Burning wood in a cozy fireplace or wood stove: not so green, according to this NYT blog item. EPA reports there are 29 million wood-burning fireplaces in US households, most lose up to 90% of their heat up the chimney. And 75% of US wood-burning stoves pollute like crazy.... More.

Wow, that is a surprisingly difficult game to play.
It is really funny how there is so much crossover in naming conventions for steak houses and gay bars!
Huh? I got 13 out of 15 before the cycle started again. Too much watching food network shows because my mate totally wants to be a chef. Most of the steakhouse names were featured in various shows over the last few years. Plus, some of the gay bars names were, well, kinda gay.
play for hours? no, i stopped when i was right 9 out of 13 times, or at 69%
I think it's just random, so you get repeats, but there are definitely more than 13.
What, no gay steakhouses?
Similarly funny and addictive is Cheese or Font?:

Cheese or Font is hard. I got 92% on Steakhouse or Gay Bar.
I am mostly vegetarian, and I am not a gay man. I got like 30%.
This is almost as difficult as playing Porn Star or My Little Pony

All the ones I got wrong were in Denver.
As a gay man, who likes steak, I did a little better than 50%. At least my confusion will never result in showing up somewhere I don't want to be.
I'm also vegetarian and not a gay man, and I have not lived in the US for 11 years. Considering that, I did surprisingly well. I can't believe I missed Fireplace in DC though. I think I've been there.
Shouldn't random clicking yield you, like, 50% over a large sample of clicks?
30% is actually interesting. A reverse predictive power of sorts.
Somewhere there's probably a gay bar called the Steakhouse...
