I'll be at burning man this year and I was wondering if any other Second Lifers were going to make it. If so, what camp will you be with, when are you arriving?

Burn Baby, Burn!

I thought about it, but heard that there was waaaaay too much lag.

Nah, Vares. The lag isn't too bad.

Unless you eat the mushrooms, then the textures load kind of funky! ;P

Only going if they promise to put me in the wicker man before they burn it. :(

I'd love to go to burning man sometime, when I can afford it....

Hey Devlin,

I'll be with a group out of Phoenix! (I'm from Tucson)

and he's not wicker, he's 2x4s and such... ;-)

Hmm.. I'm surprised there isn't a Burning Man event IN SL to occur simultaneously.. Oh well :(

There is and will be. It's called Burning Life and you will probably see the announcement for the parcel lottery any day now....

Now that's cool :) I hope to get in on that :)

I alwyas thought the whole Burning Man thing was perfect for SL. Both are about stepping outside of RL and just having fun :)

I'd go some year if I could get other people crazy enough to come with me, and if I had a stomach for Riyadh-like temperatures. SL's Burning Life will have to do in the meantime.
