Fundraising ideas anyone?
The camp that I am hoping to go with might not be able to go. We are trying to figure out how to get some money. Any good fundraising ideas that actually work?

If you dig up the afterburn reports on the Main Site, there is information about the very things you are asking about. So do the links in the survival guide and required reading. Learn about the Earth Guardians. Learn about the LNT ethic and practice. When you've exhausted that reading, then I (and...

"What is a sparkle pony?" Let the Good Doctor answer this one. You may well be one, can't say for sure, but a sparkle pony is someone who shows up to TTITD, with tons of costumes and glowstix and boas and love!

None of you seem to understand :/ I apologize for the confusion; I in no way want anyone to write my thesis. I am here hoping experienced burners can help send me in the right direction. I don't really need anyone to give me answers just a little help since I am unfamiliar with the ecology of the ev...

"It's a short paper. Maybe 3 pages long. It is tiny. " So, yeah, I have a question. The most important question in this discussion so far: Holy fuck!

Burning man is a coup for consumerism, contributes to the causes of GW and is very far from green. It's the bitter truth. Loading yourself up with blinky things, glow sticks, trinkets, costumes, and then driving out to a week-long party in the middle of a pristine desert... cranking sound and fire ...

Wait, I can "ignore" people, and their posts won't show? Man, some threads will be shortened...j/k. "What kind of environmental impact does 50k people coming to a remote place for seven days have?" <-- seems like a good question. Right? That's a good question and easy to write about, as there's a p...

Also "What kind of environmental impact does 50k people coming to a remote place for seven days have?" <-- seems like a good question. Right? Not bad ... but a factor is "What are they doing"? Perhaps a compare and contrast with an event where it did not end well. Woodstock 99 (?) comes to mind wit...

See Sqeak, there are some fundamental issues you are not aware of. Every year there are folks writing papers who have never been. Now interviewing real burners is a valid idea... but not so much online. The spoken word is different, the written word can simply be lifted without effort. Not saying t...

Burning man is a coup for consumerism, contributes to the causes of GW and is very far from green.

Writing a paper on Burning Man
We are talking about consumerism/global warming/going green etc... type of stuff in class and have to write a paper about something related to that. And I thought that Burning man would be a good thing to write about. But I need to form a question. Can anyone help? I have never been to burning man t...
