No

Yes, no one is going to burning man this year.

[Jeff L]

I've always wanted to. Maybe one day.

I prefer to visit the Black Rock Desert when there aren't a half million freaks all over the place. If I want to see that, I just visit www.latfh.com

[Kirk Keyes]

OK - maybe that was a little knee-jerky. But I still like being in the middle of the Black Rock when there's almost nobody there.

The rumor is no one is going this year. Won't they be surprised.

Been twice, Last time 10 years ago. After the second time (when the attendance went to 25K) I figured... Why?

Too many rules, to many idiots. Not enough fun.

I do have coworkers who have been to every one since 94 or 95. I think vacation time is too important to spend in that atmosphere.

But... it might just be your cuppa tea.

I'd say that burning man has jumped the shark, but my friends have informed me that the phrase jumped the shark has jumped the shark.

[Rob Skeoch]

I'd like to go but I'm starting to learn that these things are great in the early years but by the time I find out about them the buzz if over and it's gone mainstream.

What does "jumped the shark" mean.... besides that I need to get out more often.
