Hello again!  Good call - a few of you expressed curiosity about the Burning Man event... below - the interchange, another copy of the invitation. Check out the web site!  www.burningman.com    prepare for a wild ride!    peace...

Hi Kerry, thanks for the note!

I do realize the phrase 'burning man' is new/mysterious for many people.  I just figured anyone familiar with it already would like to know of an OS happening there.  It is a lot to explain - about 50,000 people in an intentional, experimental, temporary community for a week in harsh conditions (HOT, and then chilly at night) prioritizing creativity, self expression, self reliance/gift economy, responsibility (no litter!).  mind boggling art/structures /workshops/ideas /costumes.  I do recommend the official website: burningman.com.  It has loads of stuff - way better than I can convey!

Open Space Tea Party: "Integrating the Arts Across the Sustainability Movement"  this is the event I am facilitating there - a subject near and dear to my heart.  I have no idea what will happen with it - it depends on who shows up!!

Maybe I will get to meet you there on Wednesday at 2pm in the  Confidentiality Room?  Its sure to be a blast!

Cheers, love!

I always wanted to go to he Burning Man Festival in the Nevada dessert. 
  What's it really like?  How many people go?  Is it hot?  And, of 
course, tell the LIST SERV what happenes with your event (and a bit 
about B.M. because most people will never have heard of it!)

Cheers
