is there research specifically aimed at the diff.s between what is 
produced by "wood" being burned and "leaves" being burned?  Didn't know if 
one was more hazardous than the other etc. or if anyone had ever compared 
the two.  It would need to be pretty general I guess as I have no specific 
representative of either "plant matter" in mind.  Sorry if it doesn't fall 
neatly under  as a science.  A lot of places ban open leaf burning 
but allow use of woodstoves and fireplaces...... any info or guidance to 
info would be greatly appreciated - thank you
