Yes, I would agree. My disagreement was that Seattle was not a
revolution. I would submit that the mundane machinations of the
reluctant Indian government in Geneva last week possibly did more for
Indian farmers than well-intentioned Western youth protesting in
Seattle... and I do believe that well-intentioned protest is a
wonderful and productive activity, so no condescension is implied (who
am I to condescend, anyway!).
