Re: Neti Pots - use sterile technique and saline only
What's sterile technique? Boil the water first? I've been using distilled water and saline packets for 6-7 years. I used sterile technique at one time in a lab job. We had UV light-flooded rooms you could not be in with the lights on, negative pressure and iodine wiping everywhere. Playa dust is a ...

Re: What it's all about
Most Burners dont know this but for the past three years I have carved portraits with a chainsaw on playa in a sawdust containment cage so I don't create moop. In all my events I can claim more than 300 portraits and as many as 400..All my wood is sourced from trees taken down by residential tree s...

Welcome, black_rocky!
Some folks definitely gift pictures . . . there are photo booths on the playa, and photographers who take special portaits and exchange contact information with those who pose, and send the photos later.
I'm glad your first Burn was amazing!

Re: Medications on the playa...
Must agree with Eric. I use a complicated regimen of Diabetes drugs that have to be somewhat carefully timed to work with my insulin. My pill planner is critical. (especially if I'm tired, out of my normal schedule or have had a few) However... I keep these all in a kit (along with my syringes and ...

Welcome, SugarK(ate) ! :D I'm not a typical Burner either. Doesn't matter! "Mid-life REVELATION" . . . I like that. Not enough people say anything close to that. Perhaps go to this! http://www.ladecom.com/ And maybe join these! https://regionals.burningman.org/regionals/north-america/los-angeles/

Evening Bar. (* shakes jar of old dust onto the NEB) Home Burn at the Morris Burner Hostel was a nice clean change, with a very welcoming vibe. A happy evening, with good folks. We watched the live stream of the burn. Interesting the way it was sequenced with fireworks throughout and the big boom a...

Welcome, GroundStart ! In much the same manner that you come to Black Rock City when you're supposed to, your playa name will arrive when it's ready, too.

Re: In Tent Fans
I’ve used an O2 COOL brand fan before. It uses 8 D batts but works pretty good Met too! I have two 10" O2 Cool Fans, and I like them a lot. About $20 at Home Depot and Amazon. One of them is older (6 or 7 years old?) and requires a tiny tiny screwdriver to get into it, so if anyone orders one, I de...
