Maybe some of it, but I don't see that making the wood quite so bad...it 
really looks like it has a high ambient.

Equal-length, perfectly straight pieces?

You might have misinterpreted what I was saying. I wasn't talking about 
broad leaves, I meant that hay usually is finer and has blades of grass, 
while straw consists mainly of hollow...well, straws. You do get leaves 
of various plants such as alfalfa and clover in the richer hay, though. 
Pure grass hays are usually cheap...
