John Curley has a post up on the Burning Blog where he talks about a special meeting last week at Fly Hot Springs, located 10 miles from where Burning Man takes place on the Black Rock Desert. It turns out that Burning Man is interested in buying Fly Hot Springs and turning it into a year-round conference center.

What if there were a place that people could come together, people who believed in the values and principles of Burning Man, and who wanted to find ways of applying those principles in the default world … of bringing them home from the playa.

What if there were a place where the energy and creativity and approach to living that flowers in Black Rock City for a week every year could be sustained and nurtured?

What if there were a conference center where thinkers and do-ers could get together to plot and scheme and think?

Burning Man, as an organization, thinks that place is Fly Hot Springs.
