"I'm not entirely sure Burning Man participants and evolution should be uttered in the same breath. What's next? Juggalos curing cancer?"
Just in my camp of people (all five of us) we had a Neurobiologist, an honest to goodness rocket scientist (who just put a Falcon Rocket in to space), a Biochemist / Engineer, a special effects artist and a DJ. The crazy-smart people who go to that event are everywhere. Your preconceived notions regarding Black Rock City's participants show that you actually haven't been. It may not be for you, but don't choke on your sour grapes.
I can imagne 2 college students sat out there in the sunny desert enjoying the weed, beer and the tan. The suddenly a giant Mammoth skeleton comes wandering past and a woman on a trilobite. Methinks someone might be checking into rehab..haha!

so while not nearly as impressive as your guys creds, we ARE all 25 so...
