More info from the protest
carrie 13:26 : hey paul, great pics, saw you and terry on the news
There were at least 1000 people despite what the news probably says. You would not know that by checking out the story on the Channel 4
website. They don't even mention the protest. You will not believe it. Besides not even mentioning that it happend the only criticism of Busgh in the article says,
Buffalo resident Mary Jane Mills said, "I'm not a fan of his, but I think he should give his story to as many parts of the country as possible."
Here [inlink]elmwood,258[/inlink] are some quotes from the the signs posted last journal entry. Note that Rachel posted these live during the protest as I sent them to her via IM. It is the first time we have used the site for live reporting. More to come next time.
Here are the pics, I will leave the commentary up to terry.
For this one we realized that the media was focusing on the 15 Bush supporters instead of the 1000 Bush protesters.
HEre is a great quote from one of the Bush supporters via newsday.com
Justin Norton, 25, came out to show his support for the president.
"I find them to be uneducated on the issues," he said of the anti-Bush protesters. "I ask them what civil liberties they have lost (as a result of the Patriot Act) and they can't answer."
See my future journal entry about this (paul). Anyways, there was this guy who looked like a serious Nazi and very pro Bush. We realized that Terry also looks like a nazi, so we made him a sign that said Nazis for Bush and then he stood next top the hardline, pro-bush soldier during all of the press covereage. It was so funny, because it really looked like they were together.
I will comment on this last one. It seems that the Scientologist decided to come out en masse and try to get people into their cult. THey are one strange group. I think we should start reporting on them some more. Anyone have any personal experiences with them. Especially, since they just moved into Buffalo and have started being so public. I even saw advertisements for them in the Caribean restaurant on Allen. Who would have thought?
Here are some other pictures:

Campaign to Save Zoar Valley
Hi Folks,
I'm really excited about going to our capital and raising our voices for Zoar's protection. Just spent the day at Zoar enjoying the knife edges and amazing trees. What a beautiful day.
For everyone who is definitely coming on the Albany trip please read the following info. I need your full name correctly spelled so that Environmetal Advocates(organizers of this lobby day) can get us all registered and past security. You can email it to me or call 592-7547, it would be good to have it by tomorrow but no later than Saturday. The Environmental Advocates are pleased that we have such a passionate group and are encouraging us to shine our colors(that means bring the signs and banners).
We will be meeting at the Budget car rental across from the Buffalo Airport at 3:45 am Monday. If we get to bed early Sunday evening and get a nap on the ride then everyone should get enough sleep. I expect us to be back in Buffalo by 11pm. We have 2 vans reserved that can hold 14 people but if more want to come we will ask for someone to offer their car and carpool. The Budget car rental offers parking for $5.00 if you want a safe place to leave a vehicle. We will share gas but bring extra $ for lunch, parking and the event.
Together we can tell our elected officals know how much we love Zoar and why it must be saved. See you early Monday.

Speed Improvements and Top Ten List
The site should be a lot faster. I have made several improvements to the code which I expect will increase the speed at which you can browse the site.
The user drop down list is now once again in alphabetical order. As requested, I have also made a longer than 10 top ten list, accessible by clicking on the "...more" link at the bottom of the top ten. This will bring up a window with the rest of the journals in order by time and date updated. If you click on any of the links in that window, that journal will load on the main page.
