Heh, I don't really care but I think the total amount of time spent over analysing things on a cycling forum needs to be considered too.
From memory (these came up before where I've mentioned it elsewhere), it's a decent woodburner designed for the purpose, supposedly no different to burning logs, they don't have gas so there's no standing charge (house heating is all electric), time is nowhere near 30 seconds per paper and it's dead time at the end of a commute (just walking through the train collecting discarded papers that the train cleaners would be gathering for recycling anyway), they don't give a fuck how they look when they get to heat their house for free, they also live outside London so storage is effectively free.
If I see the friend of a friend again I'll pass on your concerns.
