    Never had one fall over on its own, even after 3+ years. Critters in the stacks is another story.

    As wood loses moisture it shrinks. So what a nice stacking job starts out as is starting to go south from the get go. Tite stacks, loose stacks, crossed stacked sooner or later somewhere some section will let lose- nature of the beast.
