Lovely post, Judith.  Unclear where you are/were: On a beach?

And I thought it was totally a guy thing, and ladies were not welcome ... formally.

But really, what do you think, are environmentalists ever going to stop saying to one another, with fingers wagging, "You ought to change your evil ways"?

Chickens are our cousins! So are other sensitive animals! Enough is enough! No more factory farms!

Burning Man is a festival for 38 year old Microsoft Program Managers, who go there and try to impress 18 year old community college girls about some "really cool" project their working on that will like "save the planet".

Afterwards the PMs will take off the hemp wristband and go back to driving their BMW and playing Rainbow 6 on a 50 inch plasma screen in their finished basement.

It is totally pointless. How about trying to create great community festivals at home instead?

Burning Man is just a temporary Disneyland for those too cool and self-absorbed for Disneyland.
