[edit] Outline

I proposed the following outline for this article:

1. Precursors

2. Invention and development

2.1 Lebon and the Thermolamp

2.2 Murdock and Boulton & Watt

2.3 Winsor and the Gas Light and Coke Company

3. Manufactured gas 1815-1850

4. Manufactured gas 1850-1900

5. The transition to natural gas

6. The legacy of manufactured gas

7. Modern coal gasification

The outline needs sub-points for 3 and 4, but I think we can do that once we get there.

Certainly. I'll get to that once I've finished the article. --Bwwm (talk) 01:38, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
