USEFUL INFO
For factual questions about Burningman itself, you'll be much better off
checking out the official Burningman website
and the "E-Playa" (an enormous Burningman messageboard)
than asking us. The sites are also really cool.
ADVICE
Before responding to a posting, always consider whether your response will
be of interest to everyone on the list, or just to the person you're
responding to. This should help you decide whether to post the message, or
just send private e-mail. One-line answers like, "Yes, I'd like to come to
your party" should almost always be e-mail
The phrase, "Does anybody object?" seems to work much better than "Does
everybody agree?"
The answer to the question, "Why doesn't somebody do X?" is usually "Go
right ahead."
Only quote the relevant parts of a message you're replying to. A good rule
of thumb is that your your own writing should never be less than a third
of your post.
