Ever since I began reading his work several years ago, I've always enjoyed Erik Davis' writings, especially his reflections on the playa. One of my favorite authors at the moment, actually. Im curious about other people's thoughts and sentiments towards Davis and his work on Burning Man. Hey, someon...

Hey magic8ball, WellCome to the cyber playa!

My question for you: What will her name be?

Burners hating Hippies is like Jews hating Jews, or Black hating Blacks...

Ask a non-Burner what they think of Burning Man, and they'll say "A bunch of hippies on acid in the desert!"

P.S. Thanks for a supremely entertain thread...

I grew up in Portland... I love the place to death, but I think it would be way to easy to stagnate, fall into familiar patterns, etc. Plus I have a good base of friends in the Bay.

Hey thanks for the welcomes yall. I'm glad that eplaya is such a vibrant online community - its always a bummer to come across a dead or dying forum/social network site (cough, tribe.) Doc Pyro- Yes, Burlington is still a nice little bubble of attractive woman. Cracks me up that it's been like that ...

Hey eplaya! I'm so glad to say that this year I'm finally able to attend Burning Man! About to graduate from the University of Vermont in May, and am gonna make may way out to BRC come August after some epic traversing of the US of A. Ive known about Burning Man for almost as long as I can remember,...
