Well the guy is a troll but it's true that wood is not often considered for many possible applications here. In reality for me wood is a better alternative for some applications than any thing made of metal and even some plastics. Here on the coast I mean. It requires some maintenance of course but no where near as much as anything made of metal. Of course you have to deal with the ever present termites !!
