Your analogy is founded in fact. Life depends on water; all living organisms need it. What if knowledge is essence of the higher order of life (humans)? Your pond and the number of communites it represents will be determined by your focus wihin it and if you are using micro or macro analysis. Whichever, you will find intersection of organic communities and many of those communities will leave artifacts (information). Some of the other organic communities will become dependent on those artifacts as part of the fuels to their process. Thus the ecology of life progresses as does the ecology of knowledge. Or they are one and the same thing.
