Scotto - Benevolent Dictator Burning Year (27 Years) 2000 - 2026

Camping with PolyParadise: 2000 - 2026

Some people know me as Scott Platsky. Others know me as Scotto and still others as ScottoBobScotto. I have been known to answer to Bob, Gus and even Jim on occasion. In certain circles I am known as Sir Jim of Bob.

No matter what name you know me by, I am and always will be just 'An Ordinary Average Guy'. I know enough to be VERY dangerous. A master of not much and a legend in my own mind.

BRC is the Ultimate Party, a place to be free and to express yourself in what ever manner you desire; while respecting the boundaries of others. Burning Man has CHANGED my life...I shall never be the same... It has allowed me to look at my 'Box' and decide if it must remain a Square.
