OK, not silly, then, but questioning the severity of the transgression.

I have no been to Burning Man, so it’s possible this over-the-top self-flagellation is typical.

But if you read it as humor, everything works, including the exclamation points.

It’s possible, but I don’t think so.

Do you think the rule is silly? There are a lot of music festivals out there, but Burning Man isn’t trying to be another one.

I mean, yes, it’s an apology, but it seems as if the author is poking at the silly rule.

FWIW, I like the sound camps, even though I rarely go to them. I like the energy that they bring and I love walking across the playa, snippets of sound moving my feet. It was White Ocean’s first year, so newbie mistakes all around. Hope they come back, but with MORE FIRE.
