replace first occurrence of "cord" with "rick", giving:
Well, a rick is a fraction of a cord; more specifically, a 8'x4'x24"
rick is 1/2 cord, but if 16" pieces, it is 1/3 cord; one-third of a cord
is also sometimes called a fireplace cord, stove cord, rick, or rank.
Webster defines a rick simply as a pile.
