Well after like 48 hours of no sleep I am here to tell the story of day one.  It was generally a success for my part. The internet seemed to hold up accept for our lunch break from 2-3 and from 4-6 during a battery crisis, for which t-mobile could not help us.  
Oh and the microphone mixup.  We wanted a data card GPRS style ASAP but the shortest turn around on activation that they could promise us was 3-4day.  I wish I had $1000, just to see what they would do for that.
I felt really weird today, partly because of the fact that i haven't selpt since thursday and partly because of the situation.  I have been driving the route 

 so long that I think people are beginning to take notice of me.  i think they think I am some sort of cyborg cop.  I can't blame them as i actually had a web cam wired to my head, a laptop displaying my location constantly on the internet, a big white van, and lots of microphones, and other technology.
I felt like such an outside peering in at a science experiment. It made me so uncomfortable.  I loved the project at first because it gave mne a change to hold surveillance technology really close and then it freaked me out.  I started feeling like I was on some weird cultural safari.  Nothing can make me more uncomfortable than that.  It is preceisely why I am done traveling to poor places.  The feeling was akin to some feelings I had spending time in Morocco back in my early twenties.
(e:rzoo) did a fantastic job pulling it all together.  The issues I was having were mostly with me and my feelings about me as the outsider.  She is such a kind woman and I know her heart is good.  I am excited to see what tomorrow brings.
