Maplewood, the problem with that is that poplar is actually a hardwood! We tend to speak of it as softwood and it is compared to oak or maple or many others. If it drops its leaves, it is a hardwood. Now pine....that's definitely softwood.
don't worry about it. some family will sue them for millions when their chimney catches fire from burning all that pine....
