here (Berlin) the tag's "Globalisierungsgegner" (globalization opponents).
yesterday the truckdrivers protested in berlin and the berliners reacted by taking public transport and leaving their cars at home. the Tagesspitzel commentary was that the feared traffic chaos was more effective in getting people to use the public transport than the European Auto-free day last friday. i was a bit worried about getting stuck in traffic coming home from Tegel yesterday, but made it back in record time.
