Reply #29: Hey guys - some perspective is in order here regarding the

[axollot]

people on the balcony. Friend of mine lives works in NYC - on his lunch break he went for a meander to 55 Wall ST. This is his report. (it's a reminder that we must not knee jerk judge. People of all types do not support the criminals of Wall street who are NOT showing their faces, rest assured! The right wing teahadist knee jerk judge - calling the protestors hippies and dregs of society!! Lets not be like them.)

here's my report from the front lines. 55 wall, second floor, does seem to be a restaurant again. the customers appear to be tourists with cameras and not captains of industry.
the police have the street blocked off, so the narrow sidewalks... of wall street are packed with people getting lunch, and tourists. .
the protesters are in A PARK, 2 blocks north on broadway. about 500 or so. well behaves, mostly eating lunch, sitting on benches.

Cheers
Sandy
