I thought that was an apartment building in Calgary (re. the peat moss).

Drew, I'm so relieved for you that nothing worse happened! Weird that the dirt melted.

A cement floor balcony I'm guessing ? Glad nothing worse for you.

The big apartment fire in Edmonton was ruled as arson... I think Tony is right.... the fire peat moss thing was in Calgary

I saw a film clip on the news yesterday of a playground in Texas that spontaneously combusted. The wood chips on the ground caught fire due to the ambient heat. They know it was spontaneous because the playground had surveillance cameras and no one was seen on camera for hours prior. The whole thing went up.

Wow. Crazy. So, I guess I'm not surprised that a match could ignite such dry soil. Duh...what a stupid thing to do (in retrospect). But who'd have thought?!
