 have not found many "mushrooms" on the piles to indicate who the mycelium

Well, I'm leaving one of the boxes alone, so we'll see if any 'shrooms 
appear.   Does anyone know whether this is a beneficial fungus?  Would it be 
good to add to the compost pile or dig into a new bed, or would it soon take 
over and make both impenetrable?
