The general ramblings of a young man who left the heat of Cairo for the cold of New Hampshire.

An Idea
Protest haven't really been working lately. The big guys are too afraid of us turning into Ukranians. Actually that's exactly what we need. We need their endurance. We need demonstrations that last for days not minutes-- hours if we're lucky. I also know that the situation is a little different, the Ukranians had a slight advantage, numbers and winter. Now of course their sheer numbers helped and that is something we have yet to attain. But winter, now that should help. An obvious way to avoid being beaten up and arrested is to stick together, but that's easier said than done in Cairo's summer, Marina demonstration anyone? Ukrain had the adantage of winter where people didn't mind sticking together because of the cold but how are you going to convince a bunch of smelly people to stick together, the ladies would definately faint. So do I have a solution? No.
