How are you heating your home today?

After I worked on my hillside today in rural West Virginia, I came inside after working up a good sweat. I could have just stayed inside and enjoyed the warmth without doing any work. The Associated Press sent me some Raw Footage of President Elect Donald Trump taking some meetings at his Mar-a-Lago Club during his Christmas holiday in Palm Beach, Florida. So I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the weather is fine in Florida right now and he doesn't have his heating system on. But I'm not worried about "The Donald" as he was once referred to by those in the media. I'm worried about you my friend.

Not only am I concerned about how you are going to pay your heating expenses, I have even been working towards lowering the acquisition costs for the U. S. Natural Gas Industry. That's right all my New England friends. Last year when Antero Resources wanted to pay me for the right of way to put in a very huge gas transmission line across my mountain my brother Randall and I agreed not to take any income.

I don't want your money, but you can still have your right of way across my mountain I told them and I put it in writing and signed the legal documents. 

If you heat your home with wood than perhaps you may have heard the story about my ancestor Dr. Benjamin Franklin and his designs for the Franklin Fireplace that he never patented and made available the plans free of charge.  I don't elaborate to much on the details sometimes because you are reading this on the internet and you can do your own research on many of the items I have already discussed.

You can Google it!

While your at it Google me "TDavidFranklin" or "Thomas David Franklin" that's your homework assignment.
