This is Burning Man, all across the Internet

The radio show on KQED-FM in San Francisco with host Michael Krasny went great this morning, a full hour with fellow guest Burning Man founder Larry Harvey and many intelligent callers. It's archived for future generations' scholars here.

And here's a potpourri of other web chatter about the book:

* It was a top 10 bestseller for the week of Aug. 14 at Canadian indie bookstore Pages on Kensington.

*The always essential Boing-Boing site gives a nice shoutout and link, from superstar tech journalist Xeni Jardin (who covered Burning Man for NPR last year).

*The Dead Milkmen's Rodney Anonymous thinks he's found something better than Burning Man, but mentions my book anyway.

*I make a young woman's summer reading list.

Also, as of this afternoon approx. 1:30 pacific time, I hit an Amazon ranking high (as far as I've seen) of 1,065.
