first year for me in 96' i got to go to fly and jump off the crane etc etc and play in the cool pools, the smelly pools, the hot pools and check out the geysers.

completely magical and prehistoric.


it was the only time i have been "Naked' at burning man, but i figured the mud coating was enough to satisfy my never-nude status without compromising it.


yes, there are pictures, no i wont post them.

DPW is thinking of having an ironing brigade out there in June. If they get enough people and enough giant irons, the playa should be smooth next October.
