Hmm! Is it going to be there this year?

And in this case you'll DEFINATELY need antibiotics on the playa.

BWAHAHAHAH! lol!!

Well, I think I've stated my point here and proved my reasons for it. Also, I think I'm just about done feeding the trolls, so if anyone has anything supportive of this idea, the please post it up! Otherwise, if you don't have anything intelligent to say, don't.

Maybe you should teach your cat some radical self reliance so he isnt so dependant on you... or well.. you probably like it that way.. having a sense of control over your cat.

Topical treatment for a UTI?????? Obviously you don't what you're talking about when it comes to being a doctor either. Maybe we should leave that to the doctors at Burning Pee Sorry No Antibiotics Man, to properly diagnose and treat the issue. ~ Topical "relief". You said the ride into Reno would ...

Glad to see you plonked out before you even TRIED to make an attempt to show how my statement was untrue or incorrect. You made the invalid argument. Not me. Ain't my job to walk you through the flaws of your deficient reasoning to make a point for you. The world doesn't work like that. Read your t...

Oh so suddenly things have changed, and you expect help from the DPW workers when you need it? Maybe you'll have a heart attack, and lie there dying because the DPW worker felt that because you didn't come prepared (RADICAL SELF RELIANCE) you didn't deserve to be helped. Dark Cypher, that's called ...

Your wrong here also. My first heart attack was from an inflamed heart sack. What you think they gave me? And I walked to the hospital in the middle of the night so I wouldn't kill some one with my driving. :shock: Well, and thats why I'm not a doctor. :lol: Nevertheless, my point still stands, and...

Not to argue but...........are you saying that Physicians should not be paid for their work? They have a clinic to support with the income generated from patients. Gotta pay the nurse, the rent, the PA if they have one, the receptionist, the bills. Welcome to the real world. What?! No way. He's got...

I can only hope one of those drunk DPW worker are there if I have another heart attack. They would know what the prudent thing to is.

This guys "idea" stems from a complant from last year. When no one at Burning Man was will to or could help. He did not follow a prudent path and get his friend to a proper care unit. He stayed on the playa and retuned again and again to care units that could not help him. It appears he had no plan...

Now you want the greeter to save your ass. There seems to be no end to your gimme.

Obviously, you don't have the capacity to understand sarcasm.

Right, don't screw in the dust. Make sure to have the Greeters tell everyone that as they enter BRC this year. Its understood that EMTs cannot dispense, but they could have the doctors that work out the on the playa do it if it was needed. Why are you people SO OPPOSED to such a helpful idea? I don'...

Where EXACTLY was my positional 180?


Have a great time this year at survival of the fittest man, and anarchy man. I'll be arriving at the beginning of the week as to not miss a second of extreme self reliance, not care about anyone else by myself man.

helitac, you might just as well give up. O Dark must write for Bush. He has come almost 180. and how is that unjonharley? What's your reasoning behind a comment like that? I haven't reversed my opinion on anything. Also, it would be nice if we kept bush out of this. I'm sure 99.9% of us probably ca...

Well I'm going. Again. I am as self reliant as I can be. I have to pay full price for my meds if I need them. Why should other people get a discount? Oh yeah?

Yup. I agree.

Thanks Kinetic, I go there to be self reliant. By sayig it no longer is don't make it so. The guy was fuckig in the dirt and expects others to take care of his mess.

Kinetic IV: I understand your point, and agree. Burning Man is what you make it, and take it for, although my point is that the EVENT itself just isnt about that anymore... Even still they might WANT you to be radically self reliant, yes. And doing so feels great, like you said, and I'm not knocking...

Noone said anything about having expectations for BM EMTs to carry antibiotics. These are things that would be NICE and helpful to have availible, just in case to make it cheaper and easier to get when its needed.

Yeah.. there is a BIG difference here in the US.... When I was in Spain this last summer, practically anyone trying to get a prescription to any antibiotic could walk right in to a pharmacy and get whatever they wanted. No prescription needed. I know Spain isnt Finland.... thats for sure.. but the U...

Was it a camp or an individual that brought the HUGE green lasers out the BM in 2003? you know, they glowed green across the whole playa, and lined up with the man and temple? Was it church of wow? or an individual? Will it be there again this year?

"RADICAL SELF RELIANCE" ???? "Apples to oranges" ???? "come prepared to survive at burning man." ???? Are you people for real?!?!?

Whatever. You will all (but hopefully not) understand eventually someday via first hand experience. Whats the point of a medtent if theres nothing there to treat infections with????

At least cynik gets it.

Of course it would great to have a doctor there who could prescribe and diagnose for antibiotics.... Obviously theres going to be people that arent expecting to get a UTI. Itd be nice... thats all.
