REPORT ON BURNING MAN 2006

Hard to decide on a report format to use, as I can't be arsed to think of anything new. Though maybe it should be kind of non-linear, since this year there was no real progression on anything in particular. The one constant was my back going out. Well, here goes:

I want to thank you for the skeleton piper pin that you gave at Blackies Bar. I believe that I'm the piper that you mentioned in your log. It really made my day and the person who passed it on to me. After receiving, I immediately attached it to my kilt. It was the coolest kilt pin I'd ever owned. Unfortunately, it didn't survive Burning Man. Somehow the casting detached itself from the pin and is lost out on the playa. Hopefully, one of the playa "cleaners" is enjoying it.

Thanks again, just the memory of that piece of metal brings back great memories.

You've inspired me to make swag.

Hi! Thank you for reading my account of BM, and for writing.
I use superglue to attach the pins - they don't always hold but I don't have much choice as the metal I cast with has a lower melting temperature than the solder.
Please write me an e-mail with your snail mail address, and I will send you a replacement one!

Nice write-up. That photo of Howeird at the OPC would be good for BM Earth, or whatever the 3d google project is called...

Thanks! As you know, I've done this for every Burn.
