DID YOU FEEL THE EARTH MOVE?

Antony Loewenstein claims the weekend's peace protests were Earth-shakers. But, the newspaper report he links to doesn't support his claim of significance:
US National Park Service officials said they were not monitoring crowd size, but the turnout in both Washington and London appeared to be far less than the 100,000 protesters the organisers had predicted.
Kiwis did their bit, however:
About 150 protesters in Auckland, New Zealand, forced the closure of the main branch of a bank.
Are you paying attention, Rove?

Nice to find a fellow Loewenstein-watcher.
