The focus will be on Libya but will also include Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, etc. That will be at 1 pm.<br /><br />The interesting thing is that at noon, there will be a protest a block away to show solidarity for the union members in Wisconsin. It is being put together by Moveon, a well organized political organization. I suspect the two protests will merge into a huge protest. <br /><br />Check back here tomorrow. I'll post some pictures and share my thoughts. Plus, it might snow in San Francisco for the first time in 35 years!Maxichamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08565255540275138635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34595928.post-75347595984538455412011-02-25T18:03:12.364-08:002011-02-25T18:03:12.364-08:00Has there been any protests planned in SF in respo...Has there been any protests planned in SF in response with what happened at Tahrir today?

The day before there were 1700 "confirmed attendees" on facebook. When they read up somethings saying "at least 2000" people I though that was a joke, the crowd seemed about 100 people "wide" at that time.<br /><br />However many there were, more are needed.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11797207383486874089noreply@blogger.com
