As to IAM - it was not constituted expressly in order to build the temple, Megatropolis (2010) was a Megacrew project. Further IAM continues this year, on playa and off trying very hard to bring the burn home. Just Sayin' http://internationalartsmegacrew.com/ More info will be available there when i...

Some of us who are on fixed incomes are more thoroughly screwed by this than is appropriate. I am poor, period, dot, end of sentence, I go to burning man because it is one of the few places that I don't feel like society hates me for being poor, but that is rapidly changing. I have been a doer in my...

Anyone know who is doing it yet?

Explosions - Because fire was SO 2009.

This whole thing reeks of coachella\glastonbury\bonaroo This whole idea, this ebay nonsense seems like a slap in the face. Many of us work our asses off all year to participate. And making a profit off people spectating. Encouraging it. Gives me a feeling I cannot characterize, and care not to descr...

we could circumcise the man on friday...

this could be a pretty good what\when\where event.

just to clarify, they are offering multiple "Experiences" (in a link format that is more useful for our non cellphonic friends)

I'm the only member of my family who hasn't had cancer, AND I'm the only burner.....

Coincidence?

Perhaps.....

I think it's interesting that no one asks about how the increases in fuel, lumber, DG, and other costs impact tickets. No one asks about the impact of inflation. there are no threads about "OMG! did you see how much more the BLM is charging for the permit this time because I didn't write an E-Mail?!...

Ever have one of those moments when you are thinking about the theme, late at night. Maybe you're too tired, maybe you've had some to drink... and you take it a little bit too far... For about thirty seconds I thought it would be brilliant to have a moil at burning man for rites of passage. a Circum...

[quote="Casanova"]So this will be my first year attending the burn.. And my sister just told me it is a total nudist colony and everyone gets naked, and when I think of everyone only 10% (if that) of people are attractive, I assume she was just exaggerating because I have seen some really cool pictu...

Thank you doc pyro! without you guys we would have been without a home (utility from Playa international)

BRC is the best place on earth, and Barbie Death Village was a wonderful place to be.

ROBBIDOBBS FTW!

I helped her post pooetry.

great experience.

I made friends with some LEO's.

and didn't get their pictures.

that made me kinda sad. I'll miss those two BLM rangers.

they appreciated my annoyance at yahoos actually thinking the rocket was going to launch (seriously, HOW could you believe that?)

Make sure medical tents have some.

I follow the tenets of gun safety more closely than those of my religion.

Every gun is loaded

do not point a gun at anything you are not planning to kill or destroy

Store guns and ammo separately. etc.

1. Solar panels for camps. probably a bad idea. 2. Getting a lot of solar panels cheap, to people who care. to be put into applications that will actually help. GOOD idea. it's a great idea to get inexpensive solar panels to burners, if they live in a place where solar will actually be viable\useful...

[quote="Igneouss"]From much reading of other folks experiences: Seems to be that BM is always changing (dare I say evolving?). The current event bares no resemblance to the early events. Change happens. It should be embraced. IMO people that constantly complain that the old days were better, simply ...

Will there actually be games of D&D going? 3.5 rules?

if so, I'd like to be prepared to bring my character sheet (and maybe a deck of magic cards or two?

So, updates on thunderdome?

So, is there an update on thunder dome?

[quote="Apollonaris Zeus"]I wonder why did Hitler bring Germany to its knees of lowest forms. One side of Adolph Hitler's family has known inheritable mental psychosis. The other side is Jewish. He is born during a time of great anti-Semitism caused by the two great depressions. He has a low self-es...

My doctor actually kinda laughed at first when I asked him if it was a good idea to go to burning man <epileptic> "that's not really a medical question" (priceless facial expression)

so you'll have to make sure your doctor knows you are serious.

[quote="Ugly Dougly"]I sense in you a desire for combat.[/quote]

I have a lust for combat, and CRAVE the thunderdome.

it must be.

or my hopes, and dreams, will be dashed. Sundered even.

Hi, I'm new to the burner community, missed this bit when I first got here, so, intro.


anyway, I'll be a virgin this year, and I'd like to get into the burner community.

good ways to make inroads in the reno burner community?

[quote="oneeyeddick"]I am not sure, but I think they are still filling the dumptser at the convention center with that black carpet. Our neighbor around the corner just came home with two HUGE rolls of it 3 days ago, it looked like he musta had a LOT of help as the rolls were about 4 feet in diamete...

Dunno if anyone cares for that kind of thing, just thought I'd catch it if you do.

if there is still carpet to be had, I only need a little bit (relatively speaking) and am in reno, I could probably go get it on sunday if you can tell me where.
