Re: Not enough space on the playa.... really?!
Great posting, bradtem. It is possible. . "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible" - The number of scientists and engineers who confidently stated that heavier-than-air flight was impossible in the run-up to the Wright brothers' flight is too large to count. Lord Kelvin is probably the best...

Re: Not enough space on the playa.... really?!
The existing infrastructure is what it is and I don't forsee anything changing on that front ever. We're kind of a big deal, but not THAT big of a deal. Every year I see the signs that are everywhere: "Welcome Burners"..... maybe we are THAT big of a deal. Let's ask the businesses of Reno if they w...

Until you either have door to door train service or two more lanes on 447

Re: Not enough space on the playa.... really?!
Sure, just build a multimillion dollar stadium, as bunch of hotels (and casinos, it is Nevada not Michigan) and throw in a multilane freeway like they have in Ann Arbor. Then, of course, it won't be Burning Man. Oh Ugly, you disappoint me. Ok, might have been a bad analogy to begin with, but the po...

20 buses might replace 400 to 600 cars, 40 buses might replace 800 to 1,200 cars (I did the math!)

Re: Not enough space on the playa.... really?!
Calm down.
Here's another idea: for those with just a backpack and a tent - big buses from Reno (for free!!) One big bus can replace 20 or 30 cars.

What happened in the past if you arrived before the gates opened? Tickets could be issued with a strong warning NOT to arrive at the wrong time.... kinda like it's always been done.Trishntek wrote:And,,,, what happens if you arrive before or after the appointed time? It will still be a clusterfuck.

Re: Not enough space on the playa.... really?!
Oh man, I just shoulda kept my fingers away from thread posting or maybe just quietly posted under another thread, such as "What a effin joke" or "Build a tunnel"! I'm a dreamer, and we all know that there isn't any place for that here. Anyways, it's just a stupid discussion thread that won't make m...

"Nah, just blame Burning Man LLC for all kinds of factors beyond their control... That makes more sense." (Not about blame.) I have now seen the error of my ways.... there is no way to accomodate more people and there is no way to manage more traffic. To dream the impossible dream, to fight the unb...

So... the RV rental is $1,416... and then with gas, water, extras like overnight at an RV park a couple of days before and a couple of days after, the grand total would be something like $2,100.
