Howdy  John  All
 I think a TESLA camp at Burning Man would be great ! it's a splended idea,
now we need someone to do the cordination, you know who's bringing what, how
we going to power all the coils.  I always camp in the outer ring no power
out there. so we need lot's of people to bring coils so we can get a camp
site on one of the inner rings where there is power. we will need a name
like "The Tower of TESLA" camp or something , any kind of theam name that
includes the word "Tesla" I suppose "Lightening" would work but not as cool,
for the camp, we have to be called something and gigsville is taken and
Megga volt has been used also. we could call it "Teravolt camp" or how about
simply   "St Igniteus camp" in any case a TESLA camp at Burning Man would be
a real cool thing to do.
