There was a lot of discussion everywhere -- here and on other lists 
-- about Seattle.  Perhaps novelty has worn out.  Seattle was new, 
Quebec isn't.  And there's a lack of media coverage.  Seattle was 
national & international news, Quebec is much less so.  I'm afraid 
leftists today don't find what's neither new nor on the media "really 
exciting."  Besides, not everyone can travel the world to follow & 
protest international meetings of capital -- only activists with 
either lots of money or lots of time can.
