PUZZLE POINTS
As with most public studies prepared by university intellectuals, some questions left one or two respondents a little muddled. To “What kind of coal do you use?” one person replied “Black.” “If you do not have a gas supply, but one becomes available in the future, would you use it?” “See my husband,” was the answer.
A few who answered said they would not give up their open fires without a fight. Asked what they would use to heat their homes if the Clean Air Act banned open fires, several replied, “Open fire,” One, however, would accept the inevitable: “I would stay in bed.”
