Something tangible and good? Sure, the fact that real communities are forming back in the “real world”… communities that have a basis of trust, creativity and intelligence… and longevity.

Kurt Vonnegut once said “What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.”
There is no doubt at all that stable, persistent communities are being formed out of the connections at Burningman. (To say nothing of lots more art than shows up on the playa.)
Doesn’t mean they get to drive unchecked cars on public highways though. I have to get my car checked, you have to get yours checked, they have to get theirs checked.
