Hmmm yeah, guess it sounds like I'm worrying that everyone is out to roofie me, but I realise that that is a bad characterisation and the large majority of people who will seek to gift recreational substances will do so in a responsible manner. This might concern me more than most because I think I ...

it is a perceptual issue. Yeah, if everyone perceives the place is crawling with undercover cops, are they going to tell me what's really in this drink or not? A tourist stole your lawn mower? Whatever for? Okay, maybe I'm making an assumption it was a tourist, however my backyard has a border in c...

Observations from an outsider.
Hi folks, I've yet to lose my playa virginity, but there's that itch inside me to be a burner. Over the last week, I've read a heck of a lot of the threads here about what's "wrong" with Burning Man, and have noticed some points of similarity with things in my own experience outside Burning Man. Yah...

240Gal???? Wow, I was figuring 2.5 Gal pp pd = 60 Gal I know it's hella hot there, but my wife and I have taken a 5 Gal can on weekend camping trips (Mostly because the water in our town seems to taste better than a lot) and not had to refill from the onsite standpipes. My thinking on the water at p...

It's sounding like this is something I will have to watch myself for on my first burn, I often seem to have electrolyte and water issues. I have to keep reminding myself to salt my food some in the summer here. Last year I just got a recipe figured out for a drink that helps me manage to actually ac...

Good point from Badger there (2) thanks. Interesting idea there about staging geekster, heh, you did remind me I'd be a total dumbass to haul my water all the way from home. I think too I should be thinking of provisioning in Reno foodwise at least. Staging though seems like something that would be ...

Thanks guys for the encouragement. I just got a hefty dose of reality though when I did some preliminary figures on the logistics. I'm in Ontario, I'm the best part of 3000 miles away from Black Rock. Well some measurements say closer to 2500 but it's still a hell of a way. I'm figuring that for a m...

To burn, or to smoulder and die?
Hi folks, This is a bit of a strange story I guess. I've been having a bit of an odd week, I can't get burning man out of my head. This may not sound unusual, but the fact is, I've never physically been there. I guess I've been aware of the existance of some kind of thing called burning man since th...
