Re: Burning Man 2012 Tickets FAQ
Wow, now I know where to come when I need doses of whining, entitlement, and paranoia. The prices went up. It sucks. They changed the ticket system. Change sucks. Some of the just-released details are slightly confusing. Confusion sucks. There's a remote chance that if you don't try to get your tick...

Since there was incredible sentimental value in the bike, maybe you should go beyond simply combing the Reno Craigslist ads. I'd suggest maybe posting your reward offer on there as well. And please- document those vengeful bike shenanigans, people! Would hate to miss such acts of righteousness at ou...

Buy a couple of pizzas for everyone to munch on during the drive up, in between whatever else we stop and get. It's great to have a simple, tasty, salty grab-and-eat food that is good hot or cold, and there are usually a couple slices left to eat while waiting to get in and during initial camp set-u...

I remember you. Where did you run across this? What are you guys going to do if you run across one of the high end packages? Is this self reliance on the part of the organizers? A friend of mine here in Los Angeles posted it on Facebook, with the obligatory groan. Not sure where she discovered it. ...

Maybe no one will take them up on their "offer" and they can wear their costumes and ride their bikes all by themselves. Further, I have a very real feeling that the OP is the person making this offer and just trying to sound like a referal. "Help me respond to this", my ass! The whole idea of this...

Well, this doesn't entirely count 'cause I didn't witness it, but it happened in my camp and I got the lowdown from my 'mates after the fact. We have some very cool lanterns from Bali, about 3 feet tall, multi-tiered, made of dark wood, glass, and capped with what looks like bound goat hair. Four of...

Sorry, Burp!, I disagree. The last thing I want is to be within A) smelling distance and B) hearing distance of all those slamming doors. I know, not the same as line of sight, but not far from it. Why don't you shoot for somewhere on the d-e streets, between 4:30 and 7:30? That'll put you sorta mid...

You'll find that the need to shower is a bit less compelling out there. Even with a shower rig, I only showered once last year, and the rest of the time I cleaned off/up with large baby wipes (or rather camper's wipes, available where camping stuff is sold.) These wipes did not go into the port-a-po...

For three years I used two of those Tyvek white camo "tarps" tied together at one end to cover my 10' x 20' quonset hut, but after last year, I retired 'em. It had started to tear in many places, though that was due in part to using more than the grommeted holes with which to tie the thing down. I u...

Don't know much about batteries, but I do know this: if you're using a particular battery-powered item very rarely, say, once a year? During the week leading up to Labor Day? Don't leave the batteries in it all year, Everready or otherwise. I'd say this is especially true if that one week of use is ...

Snarfing a quarter pound of tortilla chips with a proportionate amount of salsa in a fit of gimme-salt-in-ma-belleh has unintentionally served as a meal on more than one occasion.

The best earplugs are like skeet said, custom-made ones. I don't know how much those quickies cost, but ear specialists make custom pairs which have little pieces you can switch out to adjust the decibel rating. I've never gotten a pair (they're a bit pricey). The hi-fi plugs I order online are made...
