For those of us who go often to The Gulf and see what's going on there, the
45K vs 800 looks like a pretty smart investment!

That's like buying a 4 wheel drive pick up truck, trailer, a couple of chain

saws, and 10 acres of wood lot so you could heat his home with a wood 
burning stove.  A friend of mine up in Western NY state did that and had 
$50,000 invested in the venture.  At the time it was costing him about $1000

in heating oil per year.  The second year he did this, he had a chimney fire

and had to replace his chimney pipes and redecorate his family  room. Whatta

guy!!
