I think it isn't that big of a problem - I remember reading a thread here where someone discussed this - IIRC the thought was that the glass on the center stringer is thick enough that the wood is not really needed for strength - it could be a hollow stringer and work just fine. Based on that, I just let mine dry out when I discovered the same thing - wood fine but pretty damp and very thick glass.
