I still love BM. Best week of the year. In SF.

BM baffles me. I didn't move to nice, chilly, urbane San Francisco to pack up once a year and pay to sweat. Drugs can be fun in the winter, too. Just saying.

Daithi - Don't blame me for ruining Burning Man. I stopped going back in the 90's.

TAYM, you are really just a little ray of sunshine. Wake me when you have something positive to say, about anything, period.

Actually, there's probably no rush on buying tickets anymore. All of the discount tickets are sold out, so they're all $290 now, and burning man doesn't sell out . . . oh wait, that was last year.

I'd like to go someday, but at those prices it ain't happening anytime soon, and by the time I have the disposable income and unlimited vacation time to do so it'll really be over and done...

So those are the two representative links you've chosen for Burning Man? I'm no apologist and understand a lot of the criticism, but that seems like a rather mean-spirited attitude.

I don't think it ever was, really.

Heck, my eye doctor just gave me that rolled-up slip of plastic to put behind my glasses....
