    I imagine all the Aussie Burners who just arrived home from Black Rock City are donning dust masks and googles, going out in the streets and blasting techno, and driving around in their art cars shouting "The Man saw his shadow! 10 more days of Burning Man!"

    My advice for anyone living in areas that can get hit by dust storms this insane:

    Just walk away.

    And now my car needs washing!

    It was a big dust storm. I live over 600 mile north of sydney, and this was my local beach yesterday afternoon.

    On a car-related note, I seriously have to wash it now - it is very dusty.

    Beyond Thunderdome is not, and never will be, worthy of the Mad Max series.

    However, this would freak out most anyone, experienced firsthand.

    This kind of dust storm is capable of getting the particles into a hermetically-sealed container. It's pervasive as hell.

    @so I goes to the local bar, y'know, people: If you think Beyond Thunderdome was bad, wait 'till the next one comes out!

    ...With the A-Team, Fame, Red Dawn, and new Indiana Jones sequels coming out, it's just a matter of time.

    @wojo:

    Don't say that...

    Eventually, they'll run out of bad movies, TV shows, cartoons, fookin' comic books, etcetera.

    We're currently experiencing Multiplicity, but in real life, with movies.
