Yeah what was up with the final count? I heard 350,000 at the rally but people watching the news heard only about 75,000. There's no way I could estimate, but trying to walk around in the middle of the Civic Center while people were giving speeches was harder than walking thru the crowd of any massive I've ever been to!

elses word for it. Hopefully many others from the list went to the rally on Saturday. If I hadn't gone I wouldn't have known that there were approximately 350,000 people there (personally it looked like more, but I'm not counting) because as I got back to the hotel room my father had just seen a report on the news saying that only 50,000 people had shown up to SF's rally and they showed scenes from the morning where obviously no one was there because the march started at 11 am. People all across the country got a skewed view of what actually happened thanks to the corporate media and the cronies and their BUSH.

"The energy Efficient cars are out there but try buying one look at the prices. The prices are high because the demand is not there, which would you buy a $18,000 regular car, or a 30 Hybrid that holds only 2 people and looks like a oversized golf cart"

First of all about Hybrid cars.  The Toyota Prius may not look that great but it holds 5 people like any other car out there.  And second of all the base price on that car is about $20,000.  Please inform yourself before wiritng anything to this list..... as we all know we all have our little peeves and most of us are peeved by people who don't know what they're talking about.  But in spirit of Saturday's rally I won't flame.  I won't even get sarcastic.  I will just say please inform yourselves.  That is our only hope.  Don't take someone elses word for it.  Hopefully many others from the list went to the rally on Saturday.  If I hadn't gone I wouldn't have known that there were approximately 350,000 people there (personally it looked like more, but I'm not counting) because as I got back to the hotel room my father had just seen a report on the news saying that only 50,000 people had shown up to SF's rally and they showed scenes from the morning where obviously no one was there because the march started at 11 am.  People all across the country got a skewed view of what actually happened thanks to the corporate media and the cronies and their BUSH.
