Me too but most homes don't have it as their only way of heating their homes. Most have Gas or something along with it. Also keep in mind Levins is 28 years old and never really used a computer. He owns an iPod but his friends fill it up with music for him.

Their standard issue around here.
As a side note I remember when I was in grade 2 and this really old (probably in his 90s came to my school and talked his days as a messenger living in Northern Ontario. He told us this story about how he was given a coffin and told to go out to this hunting cabin and retrieve the body of a hunter who the family had assumed died since he hadn't returned from his trip (if not he was to tell the hunter his family was worried about him....hence the messenger part).
He gets to the cabin to find the person dead and spread eagle on the floor. There was no way the deceased man would fit in the coffin or the small sled that was carrying the coffin by dogs. So he had to chop off the guys arms to fit him in.
That story horrified me as a child but stuck in my mind as how much it must have sucked living in Northern Ontario all those years ago.
Sorry...what were we talking about? Oh yea..Facebook is cooool.
