Oh no, I am no good at Maths, but quite handy with math.

The BRCCP is developing plans to force the Borg to take our concerns seriously. All that talk about "The Man burns in _____ days". Sure, not if our Kickstarter campaign has anything to say about it.

Nobel Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, honorary member of the BRCCP.
It’s important to take the initiative. We cannot wait around for any one else to come and do it. Why are we waiting for someone else to come and fix things? Why aren’t we doing it ourselves? I would like to send my heartfelt greetings to the congress. I am convinced Socialism is the only answer and I urge all comrades to take this struggle to a victorious conclusion. Only this will free us from the chains of bigotry and exploitation.

An unanticipated consequence of this thread: today I had a friend email me and warn me about my "involvement" in groups that contain communistic ideals. Apparently Burners are commies now. And no, he isnt an idiot. He just didnt catch the humoristic intent.

He was serious. That worries me...

Hey, if they don't like the commie connection, tell them to start their own communist party.

George Orwell is an inspiring model. After several years as a colonial police officer in British Burma in the 1920s, Orwell returned to Britain determined to discover what life was like for those living on the social margins. “I wanted to submerge myself, to get right down among the oppressed,” he wrote. So he dressed up as a tramp with shabby shoes and coat, and lived on the streets of East London with beggars and vagabonds. The result, recorded in his book Down and Out in Paris and London, was a radical change in his beliefs, priorities, and relationships. He not only realized that homeless people are not “drunken scoundrels”—Orwell developed new friendships, shifted his views on inequality, and gathered some superb literary material. It was the greatest travel experience of his life. He realised that empathy doesn’t just make you good—it’s good for you, too.

One small problem with the rig you picture there, bri. You need about a half-acre foot of water to run it to put out anything. The rig is Hungarian, believe it or not. There were about 30 oil well fire firefighting firms at the time in Kuwait putting out the result of Saddam's troops playing with matches. There was so much burning at the time that they actually had to give a bonus to Red Adair to pull him out of retirement to get him there to spearhead the effort.

If you want to put out the fire with dynamite, you're going to have to contact the fire safety team.

Give me a tanker of liquid nitrogen and we can say "fuck yer day" to burning the Man. :)

The icing on the cake would be having a choir singing "Do you want to build a snowman?" in perfect Disneyesqe tune. :mrgreen:

Okay, okay, so The BRCCP needs to reschedule the Burn for when Lake Lahontan is in full effect...just one more totally reasonable demand to add to the list.

Of course, if you think we are going to return our grifted Kickstarter loot raised to talk big about bringing this rig to the playa, you are fucking insane, and know nothing of our revolutionary zeal. Might as well ask JT to cut his loses.... Ain't gonna happen.

For when Lake Lahontan is still in effect? bri.....get real. Lake Lahontan would cover the playa to a depth of a couple of hundred feet. The last time that happened was about a million years ago. (1.2 million to be exact) It had 8 separate stillstands as it slowly evaporated; you can see each one of the ancient shorelines on the 9 o'clock side of the playa. Back in those days, Lake Bonneville was full, too.

All that remains of Lahontan is Pyramid Lake to the south of Empire, and on the Pyramid Paiute Reservation. They're not about to let a bunch of crazy white assholes steal the rest of their water. They kicked the white man's lily white ass in April 1860 at the Battle of Pyramid Lake. No reason to think they won't do it again if pushed the wrong way. Your revolutionary zeal wouldn't stand a chance against some of the F.B.I. running around....that's Fucking Big Indians for you non rez crowd........
