hello,
You have kids? or friends with kids? Make Kapla

out of them! lots of them!!!! Kapla is a contruction game using wood sticks of dimentions 1*3*15 that you just stack together to create structures... you would be extremly surprised at the type of stuff you can do (hint, use gravity and spread load to create over hand structures)... look at some examples at the above URL and this one too...

I saw a couple of postings from peoples looking to make spindle craddles.. sell them the sticks with a spindle pattern :-)

I'd take every piece I could get.. even if I had to build a storage shed.. *g*
Besides the obvious things such as a life-long kindling supply, you KNOW that as soon as you turn them down, some project will start and you'll be cutting wood into 1x1" strips.. *g*
Poplar should be good for things like drawer slides and stuff in shop cabinets, trim strips, moldings, etc.... maybe glue up some table tops or something??
If all else fails, put 'em on ebay in batches of 100.... folks will find a use for them..
