In an article for The Guardian, Grover Norquist of the fiscally conservative Americans for Tax Reform details his first trip to the Burning Man festival this year. Norquist originally wanted to attend two years ago, but scheduling conflicts intervened:

My wife and I had planned to join the "event" in 2012, but some idiot scheduled the Republican National Convention in Tampa for the same week. I objected, but the overlapping bit of the Venn diagram of Burners and Mitt Romney enthusiasts was perhaps not as large as I had thought. [The Guardian]
