Jace - You do have a point. I've often thought the same thing. I really don't know how to answer that except to say that the world is full of things that need fixing and are illogical. I don't know that there is a good answer to your point. I do know that many of the people who attend BMan are quite generous with their time, money and resources for many causes. Many "burners" donated a lot of their time volunteering in New Orleans after Katrina and many are activists for a multitude of causes. I do believe that BM has achieved a status that does play a small but important role in cultural change. It would be difficult to explain it here, but the art of BM is an important aspect of the experience that draws all these wonderful creative souls together. It's these kinds of thinkers that do make a positive and meanigful change to humanity and the world. Some of the most amazing discussions I've ever had were with complete strangers in the middle of the desert. (And no, I wasn't on any drugs that made me think that).
