I also did not get tickets. I put in for two at $320, but got none. I did not speak up about the lottery because I chose to see how it worked before assuming that it would fail. SIGH! Of course demand far exceeded the supply of lottery tickets. I don't think this is because people are bad. I think i...

2-3 of my friends and I am hoping to find rides to the playa for the 2011 event, leaving hopefully from Edmonton or Red Deer. Edmonton has a sizeable burner community that have gone down in convoy for the last few years. This is the group that puts together Fort Kanuckistan -- with folks from Calga...

I don't know how things are in Ottawa, but the Montreal Burners are a fun bunch. On Facebook, find them by looking for "Brûleurs de Montréal Burners." They have access to resources like shipment of cargo, carpooling, and so on, in both official languages.

Can we bring cats? It is my hope that the following story will become legend: During year one, when Cat Show & Tell was being held a Comfort & Joy, there was an actual cat that came to visit us! He didn't say much. He lived with his humans in an RV that traveled year-round around the U.S. A special...

Cat people, as well as their allies, supporters, and friends -- you are cordially invited to Burning Man's premiere event for cat lovers: Cat Show & Tell. This is the event's third year, making it Cat Show & Tell The Third . It is just like it sounds: we gather in a circle, and anyone who likes can ...

I think we should see other people. I hate you, and I'm leaving. Right after the burn.

Dr. Pyro wrote:jpx, you are thinking about Preserved In Time. They will be back again as part of Barbie Death Village and are going to be on the corner of 3:30 and G. I am sure they appreciate the kind words.

thank-you : ) i will look them up and get in touch.

Last year, someone camping with or near the Barbie Death Village had a canning machine that people could use to make time capsules. Write a message, put it into an empty tin can, seal the can... that kind of thing. Does anyone know if this machine will be making a return to the playa this year? That...

If this happens again this year, on Thursday, come by Cat Show & Tell and tell us about it.

Specially timed to be at the midpoint of the week, like the equinox.

Hey folks, I'm looking to share a ride down to Burning Man and back...I currently live in Montreal and am wondering if there are any Burners planning to drive down in the Montreal-Ottawa-Toronto area? Let me know... check out the Bruleurs group who meet the second tuesday of every month (i think). ...

Advantage -- after, you can look at a gigabit satellite picture of the city, zoom in on walk-in, and find your _exact tent.

In real life, I create playlists for classical musical radio stations, and if you like, I can make you a CD or a few CDs of organic music for the soundtrack for your 2010 burn. Just ask. You can ask for almost anything. Be as specific or as general as you like. For example, you could ask for: - Musi...

Do they let you bring backpacking stoves in checked luggage? Ye--e-e-e-s but not the fuel. You should be able to buy it in Reno. Supposedly you can't bring it if it's ever had fuel in it, but just make sure it's burned off. i did just this but got my stove confiscated airport security. that was the...

this might be a long shot, but is someone bringing an english horn to black rock city this year?

i would appreciate connecting with this person. thanks!

Also, he pointed out that violins are put together with hide-based glue, which is not permanent and allows them to be taken apart for repairs, even after centuries. Hide glue becomes liquid when heated, so make sure you keep the fiddle protected from the day-time heat (not in the trunk of your car!...

i am totally from edmonton.

what part of the city are you from? what high school did you go to? if it was Mac High, did you have Mr Melnyk?

i've had good luck bringing a Backpacker guitar to Black Rock City, with no need to baby it. i really did just throw it over my shoulder and cart it around, on my bike, storms, anyplace. i didn't have problems with it at all though i did break the same string twice, and carry double spares now.

Over three years I've camped with a huge camp, with a medium camp, and solo, and solo was my favourite.

I camped in walk-in and would take people out to my camp and they would say ... Oooh ... it's so quiet...

good to hear from you again, and see you on the playa for Show & Tell : )

My wife last year was introduced to an actual live cat last year at camp.

i was there!

to all cat people and their allies, supporters and friends: you are invited to Cat Show & Tell. as cats go, on the playa, this is the main event. and it's easy. bring something that has to do with your cat -- a photo, story, souvenir, anything. then we will go around the circle, each person sharing ...

Lucky cats are Japanese, not Chinese. Maneki Neko. Just to be accurate. And all my years in Japan, I was told the raised left paw was to beckon prosperity and wealth. Uh, the tanuki repelled misfortune, the foxes kept away ghosts. At least, that's the way the grannies in the neighborhood explained ...
