I'd say dust. And to show what little real knowledge I have on this event, when do they burn him?MarkBC said:Is this a dust storm? Or some kind of special effects?

Nothing significant remains when they're done with the clean-up. They make a point of making it all disappear afterwards, they say here on the Burning Man site:Casa Escarlata Robles Too said:It must be quite a big job to clean up after all is finished.

That's nice to hear that it's that well cleaned up.MarkBC said:Nothing significant remains when they're done with the clean-up. They make a point of making it all disappear afterwards, they say here on the Burning Man site:
By the time the event is completed and the volunteers leave, sometimes nearly a month after the event has ended, there will be no trace of the city that was, for a short time, the most populous town in the entire county.
Now, I've never actually gone there to inspect it myself -- so I can't personally verify how clean they leave it -- but I hear that the BLM enforces this requirement, and the BM guys (at least, the ones in charge) want to keep a green-cool-guy image.Casa Escarlata Robles Too said:That's nice to hear that it's that well cleaned up.
