    Water ration

    6 litres per person per day.

    Metric Firkin revealed by the KSI (Kanuckistan Standards Institute): 42 litres

    Volume of water sufficient for one person to survive for one week in the Black Rock Desert. (One Imperial firkin of beer (or ale) is about 40.915 litres.) 5 flats of beer (5x24x355ml) is 42.6 litres (the extra 600ml is "for my dead homies".)

    A Vitruvian metric firkin is 50 percent of your body mass (as water).

    Open Mind, Open Heart, Open Soul

    Some of the core principles of Burning Man are:

    Radical Self-Sufficiency Radical Self-Expression Radical Inclusion

    Bring a strong, open mind to the festival. There is an incredible array of goings on, like nowhere and nothing else in the world.
