This idea from BobbyG goes as follows:

It has come to our attention in the Cultural Control Commission that some so-called brnrs are thinking they can sneak off and "get their lives in order" or "get back to normal" or "go low-profile for a while" or be "out of sight, out of mind"...these people of late have been "just taking a pass" when Burner events come round, and saying wimpyass lameass things like see above.

Our solution: BURNergrams.

We will start this service with a $1,000,000 grant from the NEA and test market it in some unannounced city. people's friends will arrange for a burnergram and lo and behold, right there at their job as they're getting their life in so-called order, or at their so-called "white wedding" or while in church some Sunday trying to blend in with the Xtians, or studying for their damn exams to get into grad school, or writing a paper in the library to suck up to their favorite professor who has that internship dangling in front of them, or in front of the boss at review time, or having dinner with a client where they're pitching a sale they know they'll never get:

BAM !! into their life will come the XKRAZZieness of Black Rock City !!! BOOM!! I leave it to your imagination, but each one will be a different trip back to the desert for each person...

Yes, use your imagination. imagine all the ZANIness of the playa JAMmed right in your so-called "normal life."
