    I visited Occupy Now! b/c it was historic. Unlike my earlier years,, I did not feel that I was a particpant. I wanted to report back to my friends what my experience was. The mentally ill homeless made it very difficult. I offered to bring some supplies. An acquaintance chasisted me for mentioning the danger of the mentally ill homeless. Yet the Christian groups present constantly were watching me so that my bag was not ripped from me. They mentioned how they would be extremely nice to the p olice but wondered about people who are not capable of being nice.

    On a more real note...

    the Internet.

    At no time in history have so many had access to so much information and points of view. People have for the first time, the freedom to read whatever they like, to question whatever they like and to believe whatever they like.

    I am sure it will evolve in ways we know not, will be the subject of much debate and attempted controls but will keep on until the satalites fall from the skys.

    Then it will still have impact because billions will not be able to unsee what has been seen, unlearn what has been learned. The legacy of the internets existance will be longer lasting than the internet itself.

    IMO, OZ
