Burning Man's Premature Conflagration


Burning Man, the celebration of freedom of expression, was supposed to be different this year because the carbon burned in the desert was going to be offset, with some referring to the event as "Greening Man.".

And different it is. Today's date will go down in infamy as a San Francisco knucklehead set fire to the Burning Man prematurely, destroying the 40-foot high pyre days ahead of schedule. Event organizers have promised to build another Burning Man in its place, but who will offset the additional carbon?

Shame on you, Paul Addis for taking the artistic burning into your own grubby hands. In this case immolation is not the sincerest form of flattery. (Photo: Hollywood Today)

Here are mine:
consumer generated power

innovative ringtones (like [url=http://www.news.com/5208-1033_3-0.html?forumID=1&threadID=31380&messageID=312987]fart ringtones[/url] for young people)
retail approach to recycling
carbon offsets by sms

share yours if you don't mind revealing your genius. :)
