might be time...

about the eleventeenth time I scrolled past '2008 Burning Man Event' in the index to see what was posted in '2009 Event' it occurred to me that it might be time that it move it to "years past". I don't mean to be a noodge, I know you guys are busy and probably everyone's so used to it that nobody notices any more but you might want to consider it.

Leave it up, it still is pertinet for certain issues and topics, and there is no reason to remove it until AFTER this years burn.

I didn't suggest removing it, just moving it down the page. "years past" goes all the way back to '03. Maybe the tradition is to move it down after each burn when you introduce the next year, I don't know. Maybe it's a big headache to move. It just struck me as out of place the other day.

Typically the changes are made at the sametime I think. They (dork) creates the new years thread, 2010 Burning Man event, move 2009 up and move 2008 to the archive.. me thinks

Yeah, I usually do it all at the same time but that's mostly because I don't think about it until someone freaks out that the event is over and the next year's threads haven't been created yet. I'll archive 2008 shortly.

Chur bro, Aotearoa is sweet as! Water swirling the opposite direction is a myth, but it is true that sheep outnumber people by 22 to 1. Gotta run, my mince and cheese pie is ready!

Wellington, huh? One of my very best friends (non-burner, so far) lives in Wellington - I'd love to send her a gift via the burner network. Dork, will you be at the Eplaya meet n greet?

I don't think I'll make it to BM this year, but you might be able to find another wellie burner - try the kiwiburn website.

It's a shame you won't make it. It is a LOOOONG haul from NZ though.
