Thanks I figured, just checking...it's a very wired wood start out very wet, dries fairly quick for in sun, burns ok.... guy dumped it at my house, I will never ever turn any wood free down!!!

All keeps me my house, my water, my family warm!!!!
 
Ok, so just what the he77 is piss elm? We seem to have an over abundance of it here in southern Idaho, it's harder than the back of my head, it hates me, my splitter, my saws and my chains. It has pretty sh**y roots, seems very susceptible to rot in the root, grows quick and dies on a whim. And when you burn it you get moderate heat and a log sized hunk of ash, but I have a neighbor who swears it's the best hardwood she's ever burned and pays me to bring it to her.
