Steve Rosenthal in Carrol's forward:
The argument that a trans-national capitalist ruling
class has largely become detached from nation states is
a figment of the imagination of the anti-globalization
movement, a movement that mistook U.S. domination
for U.S. omnipotence.
This is rubbish.

Hey Ravi,
Thanks for the NYC report. Chuck Grimes, Sabri Oncu, and I spent about
seven hours at the SF demo today. That's more or less how long it took for

Loved the pretzel sign. Thanks for the photos.
Best,
