How about pasteurizing at 165 F?
Might find this interesting: http://www.natureskills.com/stone_boiling.html
Doesn't answer your questions, but might be interesting for you.
Thanks for the link, will check it out.

They did that method on that Man Woman Wild show this season
Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.
I saw that episode. That was part of the reason I tried it. It worked really well for them. My rocks cracked and my water didn't quite boil.

Read the link, I just skimmed over it but I believe you have to use certain types of rock...
i.e. limestone won't really work, while something hard like granite would be great....

Well, you don't "HAVE" to use certain types of rock - but some are better suited than others.
Rocks which crack can potentially be dangerous to the handler, but will still get the water to boil.
From the article, granite is one of the worst - has fine cracks/pores which cause cracking from steam expansion. The best of the ones tested was basalt.

Great idea but if you're using rocks to heat water you literally don't have a pot to piss in, so you probably not have a temperature device.
it was just pointed out to me that this does not apply to volcanic rock. It contains micro organisms that can live at 900 degrees F
