Wednesday marks the third day of Burning Man, the raucous and colorful annual art event dedicated to radical self-expression and self-reliance. Back in the early 1990s, when the event was first held in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada, it was populated mostly by artists and hippies. But things have changed since then.
