We too had a compost fire once, in a 4x4 compost pile, and it smoldered for a week, even with attempts to water it down.  Nasty, but fortunately not in a location which threatened anything.

I don't know any thing about dew ponds. But I can tell you don't have a large compost pile close to your house. You might lose it to fire. I have had a compost fire and they are not fun. Bill

          Hi Carla...I agree it's an interesting subject...closely related to voodoo and witchcraft...:-)
          On a popular organic gardening and farming forum...that I visit now and again... two other serious subjects generate lots of laughs... and they are dew ponds that fill up on their own...and home compost piles they burst into flames on their own...:-)

        When my husband sees the first lightening bugs of the year he always says it's time to plant cotton! (We don't grow cotton)
        A few years ago I started writing down when the Red buds bloomed, the apple tree, the daffodils. The dates have varied so much from year to year that I don't see a connection.
        This is an interesting topic though!
