time.com— Burning Man's Larry Harvey says the city the project creates in the desert every year has done some radical things other cities should try.

You make really good points, but instead of having to deal with our own trash as a way to force people to make better choices, wouldn't it be easier and more effective to fine the f**k out of corporations (in the form of taxation) for using excessive non-recyclable packaging?
Cities should note that when you have crap like this occurring in the area you'll be overrun by a horde of stinking, nasty and stoned hippies still stuck in the 60s. Should round up the lot of them and have them do community service until they come down and realize how f**king stupid they are.
this year there were temps in the high 90s to low 100s during the day, and in the 50s & 60s at night. it was warm and gorgeous... probably the best year in a long time, weather-wise. late in the week a cold front moved through, and there was talk about rain and temps in the high 30s at night, so that's why you see people bundled up. also, people from california tend to get chilly easily in the high desert. : )
LOL, far from it. I spent more time at the stages out there spouting fire while playing, Rob Zombie, Metallica, Slipknot, Slayer, Powerman, and Static-X. But its cool I like to make broad unbased generalized assumptions too, to make myself feel better.

The desert is warm in the day and cold at night.
