I like it and I didn't know about it until I followed a link from the
Yahoo coverage page to the ACC NYC website. Nice touch.

I hear from friends that Manhattan has been turned into a militarized
police state. A small group of undercover cops pulled over a group of my
comrades and tried to search them.

Looking forward to the day when 100,000 people descend on NYC to say
nyet to capitalism.
