Today and tomorrow mark the seventh annual burning of the man in Second Life's own Burning Life festival.  These amazing Burning Man pics say it all.  This year's Burning Life festival was comprised of 34 sims, with thousands of participants all bringing their unique flavor to the annual Second Life version of the Burning Man festival, held annually in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, where 10's of thousands create Black Rock City, dedicated to community, art, self-expression, and self-reliance. They depart one week later, having left no trace whatsoever...as do the SL residents.

This year, Second Times Virtual World Report had correspondents on the scene to bring us a demonstration burn of 'the man', presented by Suz Rau, Max Meredith, and creators of 'the man', Gypsy Paz, Debbie Trilling, and Elfod Nemeth.  Get your own copy of the inworld publication.  Not a member of Second Life yet...its easy and its free.  Create an avatar and join in the fun.
