Dear Doctor Thomas B. Reed,
   
  Thank you for the comment. Is very important to clear concepts separating
hard from soft. Of course energy contents of dry matter is similar, we says
in spanish "cord" ;"stereo" but division is important to clasify uses of
firewood. Soft need less acid to make cellulose than hard then free energy
is better for burn with hard and soft is better not only for chemical
processes but using it for breed cattle. Remenber 14 Kilo of sugar cane
yields one kilo ethanol but 17 kilo is one kilo of meat ;what do you think
what is better? to drink alcohol or eat meat?



Dear Benjamin,

What do you think is better? Eating meat or drinking rum?

It's a tough call!
