No, thank YOU for making this year such a pain-in-the-fucking-ass for the folks who had to clean up your HUGE FUCKING pile(S) of shit on the playa after the event..

Funny.

I followed the link to their site and looked at the pages.

On the "get involved" page, there were requests for construction people, seamstresses, and bartenders.

On the "donate" page, there were requests for generators, trucks, post hole diggers and palm fronds.

Nowhere in there did I see any requests, notations or suggestions for people to "get involed" in cleaning up or "donate" some time for clean up.

Very interesting.

Personally, I think the best response to this will be to tell everyone I know to boycott every single Lush fundraiser and event, and hopefully elimate their means to return and cause a problem again.

Huh. Each and every one of the unprepared, clueless fucktards I greeted Wednesday night were all going to the same place: Lush.

Coincidence?

Maybe that is where corporate sponsorship can come in handy ... maybe a few caess of Yahoo! swag with a sign ... "If the shirt fits, wear it!" and so they then voluntarilly identify themselves to the rest of us.

Oh, and lets not forget the second-hand information passed from a camper there that because Lush had scored such a huge piece of prime playa real estate that they were charging $100 per tent/group to set up in the area.

no way, this can't be true. I mean it can be true but why would someone pay for that?

"...but why would someone pay for that?

Probably for the same reason that people would pay for this sort of shit .

A lot of camps charge. I think heebeegeebees charges a little over $200 but that includes meals.

So I can see why people might think $100 is a good deal.

I suspect Iso had something different in mind than campmates getting together ahead of time and splitting the costs of food, transportation, water, etcetera.

(But on behalf of the HeeBees, thank you.)

geekster · Post by **geekster** » Wed Sep 29, 2004 6:10 pm

I agree and sharing the expense of the food and common area is a good example of a way to share the expense. I do have a problem, though, with camps that want to charge people just for using some of their real estate and none of their resources.

I suspect Iso had something different in mind than campmates getting together ahead of time and splitting the costs of food, transportation, water, etcetera.

Indeed I did. In fact I think its perfectly honorable to solicite - hell, mandate - that some camp members kick in a pre-determined amount or percentage of camp related expenditures. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that a good number of the more successful ones get their monies primarily through such funding.

I see the truth of it now...thanks ya'll.
