I am not sure that is really true. That said we seem to be moving more and
more towards totalitarianism and that wont be good for those of us who
value freedom in it's many forms.

I propose the cafe in Borders, Oxford Circus. Anywhere near the start
point for the march will be too crowded as I discovered last time.

I suspect tonight will mark the start of 4 or 5 days of sustained
bombardment and the ground forces will not have launched the major ground
attack until that is done so I think we'll still have plenty of murder to
