Re: anyone know of a good car wash place in the east bay or
this place did a fantastic job on my rental car this year: http://www.divisaderotouchless.com/ it's in sf but not too far away from the octavia exit so it should still be reasonably accessible from the east bay. their $50 burning man special included interior cleaning, exterior cleaning, tires, ever...

Re: Stages/Camps playing Minimal, Techno, and Deep Electro?
For me burningman is anything my heart desires. nice :) and if your eplaya handle is a reference to amorphous androgynous, we're going to get along even better. and oliver, you won't have any trouble finding that kind of music out on the playa. Want It will definitely be featuring all of the above,...

While it appears the "rules" were not really enforced, they are pretty clear regarding how much power you can run if you are not in a designated loud area. I assume you were running much more than 300 watts and were not in such an area? i'd like to address this "designated loud area" bit as well. t...
