Little Nixon, NV – The newly minted not-for-profit Burning Man Organization of America in association with Black Rock Solar, Inc. just issued the following statement about fire poi at this years’ Burning Man Festival:

Starting at Burning Man 2014, ‘Commiserate’ we hereby declare all fire poi to be powered by solar or other approved alternative energy sources. This may affect the time the Man is Burned (probably noon-ish this year). The Department of Fire, Poi Division will be set up near the DMV this year where all poi instruments will be checked and licensed before being approved for use. There will be 2 classes of Poi license, one for daytime use only and the other, for both day and night time use. The number of licenses issued will be limited to 178. All those found in violation of these rules will be forced to attend Ranger Training.

More information will be produced soon but the sun is going down and we need to conserve power on our solar free range organic laptops.
