Sarah, I agree. Burning Man is a much looked-forward-to event and this sad incident having occured will sadden the entire 'community' that has gathered.

Wow.. I know someone there too. Too weird that happened. Maybe it was an accident.. maybe it was supposed to be art and went wrong? Well, rest in peace, whoever they were.
