Fatwood find

"Fatwood", as in "pitch wood" or "lighter knot", etc.??
If so, I can't believe how much there is here in Florida... I've got about 3 2ft stumps of it all cut up... Next to birch bark, it's my favorite tinder... But back home (PNW), it is pretty rare and a great find when you can find it.. Here, it lies all over the place.
