Met a photographer last year who turned out to be a supply side Econ professor. Had a nice convo over lunch with his wife. Lots of wannabe hippies indeed, but more artists and mad scientists, which is more the point. Where do you spin?
I spin @ Root Society. There are all walks of life at Burning Man, I have met people from all over the world with the wildest stories to tell. Its always interesting.
My fav thing about BM is the art cars. Where else can you see a giant rubber duck/dance club with laser eyes driving across the desert?! lol
