More like, "Hey, I just had this bad breakup with my girlfriend, I want
to do *something*, something cathartic, hey, I know, I'll build a man
out of wood on the beach and burn it with my buddies." And then do it
every year. And then after a few years, you can't do it on the beach
anymore, and have to do it in the middle of Nevada instead.
With Flipside, it's like, "Hey, I went to Burning Man, and it was really
cool, and it would be fun to burn something with a few buddies," and the
first time you do it, it's just 30 people, and a few years later it's
close to 1000.

I wouldn't sneak anything. However, if you have suggestions for
chemicals, I've got a real "in" with one of the rangers for Flipside,
and he'd know something about feasibility, at least. (He also did a lot
in the construction this year. He *also* got inspired by various Ranger
activities, both at Flipside and Burning Man, to become a paramedic --
he's taking a test on that right now as I type, from my understanding of
the timing. And he had to go to *Tyler* to do so.)
