I would have thought it would be mighty uncomfortable with all that sand blowing around …

I found the following article about Burning Man [1] rather amusing.

Maybe it's a coincidence that local health workers have complained to me that they think there's a noticeable increase in STD (Sexually Transmitted Disease) testing around the Bay Area after Labor Day weekend, presumably from those who found bliss and new friends for life (of the genital virus variety) while spreading the, um, love and art at Black Rock City … The Man might be burning, but so is your ass. It's no wonder the attendees are called “burners.”
