		OCF is more strictly a hippy fest (whatever the term even means these days) whereas at Burning Man there is a much higher quotient of other stripes of freak, from anarchist Mad-Maxians to bespectacled engineers who build flaming gyroscopic rocket dragons in their spare time.
		Having said all that, the people at OCF are by and large the sweetest bunch of folks i've run across, and i hope the Fair keeps flying its flag for a long long time.

		Today, Fair is a 3-day city, a community where everyone can be involved: in booths, in entertainment; people come costumed, and yes, if you've heard stories about women walking around bare-chested save for some interesting paintjobs, there is some of that too.

		As usual, we went to the fair on Sunday, which is the best day for families and old folks like us.
		So far as I am concerned, the belly dancers, the topless and scantily dressed women, and the the general atmosphere of the fair were much more distracting to my testosterone addled mind than usual.
