Jack Rabbit Speaks

ready
"Every time we look at it there's
something new, and that's a very good sign in this year of the
Green Man that things are really taking off...there is so much
phase-shifting, force-multiplying, get-your-green-on news, we can
hardly keep it all straight."
As for your plans for the
playa...well, y'all theme campers best get your games on, because
MAY 31st is the new theme camp/placement deadline -- and that's
EARLIER than previous years, but the placement team needs the time
to make all your amazing theme-campy-pieces fit, which is harder
than it sounds! We know you've got big plans - now's the time to
get them organized and submitted to the team that'll put it all
together to make one big, bouncing BRC. Don't procrastinate.
Remember also, the Art, Media, DMV questionnaires are all still
humming along, and have deadlines of their own. Get on it:
http://forms.burningman.com/ Good advice heard on the NY list this
week: now's a good time to take out your tent and test it for the
season...missing poles and ripped eyelets still have plenty of time
to be replaced or repaired! Off we go. Eeeeeeeeeeep!

Of course this year, new "Green Man" ideas to help us all reduce, reuse, recycle, rethink, and repair WHILE we prepare are *especially* welcome! Got info on pick yards, scrap warehouses, sources for used stuff? Hit us up! Note: If you have preparation ideas that DON'T relate to buying or selling, but DO encourage reuse/repair/rethinking tips, please send those in ANYTIME and we'll share 'em any way we can. The RESOURCE issue is the place to share info about those things that many of us have yet to acquire in preparation for the week of surviving in the desert...but let's all do this with an eye toward making greener, better decisions this year!
