Some here in Fairbanks still run a coal stove on cold days and it stands out powerfully. Most have made other arrangements to avoid the embarassment of emitting that sweet aroma all over the hillside and a mile away down the valley. There are worse things. Wood is best.

But what a lot of people don’t know is that Vanderbilt University has a coal fired power plant ON CAMPUS right in the middle of Nashville. The scrubbers and emissions controls work so well that few people even know it.
