Peat Fires are dangerous as they can be put out on the Surface but the blaze can still be burning underground and pop up elsewhere. Some Bog Fires have been known to burn for Years. It would be ashame if Burns Bog succumbed to that fate.

Yah me and shaun were going down the highway near Canada Way and I noticed the smell and the smoke in the sky. There was ash floating all over the place. He lives just over the bridge from the fire and says it looks crazy from his house. I can only imagin how much it must suck though to live beside it.

Wow... maybe Hell is actually just a really huge bog fire that's been going on underground for a long-ass time.

Those of you who live near there should be careful not to get caught when the Souls of the Damned (tm) explode out from the bog under your feet.

its important to remember that fires do occur naturally in nature and that it not only destroys plants but also gives birth to a larger abundance of plant life following the fire. i know that bogs are known for their cranberry production and its been found that following bog fires cranberry plants seem to increase in size and numbers
