When you go to someones house who does not burn wood and you or your kid leaves the door open for a little bit. They tend to get a little bent over it. "SHUT THE DOOR, YOUR LETTING THE HEAT OUR!"

------You are never to old to Vote!------ I guess the point was that most of us that heat with wood go out and get it, split and burn it. Those that heat with gas or electric have to pay for it each month. They see the $$$ flying out the door. Those that heat with wood just don't care or say 'put another log on the fire'. Did that last part put a song in your head?

"SHUT THE DOOR, YOUR LETTING THE HEAT OUT"
We burned wood growing up.

that saying.
I can still hear my dad yelling.lol
Sometimes ya just had to let a little heat out. Lol

To me it was a lack of respect to leave the door open at someones house, no matter what they heat with or what you heat with. You can't buy common sense. Sorry, I think you took this the wrong way. I meant that when you walk in and leave the door open for the next person or that you walked out to get something. The point was that at our house if you are coming back in there is no need to shut the door. We leave the door open if we know we are coming back in or if we know others will be coming in. Many times we open a door or window to cool it down. Just something those that do not heat with wood would not understand. Common sense is ingrained at home. Common sense at our home would say if you are coming right back in to leave the door open. Why spot and juggle what you have in your hands to try and open the door? I guess that would make sense if you heated with gas or electric but we have never done that. To be fair I put in more time getting firewood than if I just worked a couple overtimes to pay for gas or electric. But that just wouldn't be the same. I would rather not care if the door was left open. But that is just me.

The point was that when one of my kids walks in, leaves the door open since we are not far behind them and they tell them to shut the door. I guess if I had to pay for gas or electric I might feel the same as you.
