I thought it was hilarious, like the big lighted "Boring" sign. Well done.

There was a point during the live webcam feed where the camera was stationary and pointed out toward the Man and all of the other blinky lights out there in the distance. Then, in the foreground, moving slowly across the bottom of the screen like a lowerthird crawl you'd see on the news, was this large bright green hand giving the bird to one and all. It couldn't have been more perfect.

I'm not sure that it will be available unfortunately. It was mentioned that the live webstream won't be reposted.
In the spirit of immediacy, I will not repost video of the webcast. It's like you had to be there, even online, to experience the beauty of those moments.
I will remember to let you know if it does show up and I run across it. Anyhow, I'm glad you had a great time on the playa!

I have seen the Bird Of Paradise on the stream not captured.
The finger did a large curve in front of Camp Sextant.

Perhaps ask at Camp Envy 2016 there were apparently also many posting captures on the commercial media (twitter facebook . . . )
