Default does all wood darken?

Yep ... and, as you know, every time you walk in my house you can see that
the nice initial effect of inlaying walnut with cherry may not stand the
test of time.

The walnut lightens and the cherry darkens, making the inlay almost
disappear.

Next time, reverse the woods. Inlay cherry into the walnut. That should do
the trick! Hindsight is 20/20. :-)
