We’ve been doing this on Playa since 1998. To quote John Muir again “The type of life your bus contains differs from yours by time scale, logic level and conceptual anomalies but is “Life” nonetheless. It’s Karma depends on your desire to make and keep it Alive!” Camp’s “Life” is Equality and Community, come visit and see for yourselves.
