then I finally found the guy in the blue shirt on the stage (Supposedly that is Kerry at the podium-looks more like Bill) and realized the proportion on this picture.

7. Looks like hundreds...

...of thousands!

(BTW...I noticed Ann Coulter is coming here Nov. 5. Glad it's after the election since her aura will contaminate the city more than the floods did. In case you are going to see her, may I recommend Jean Jacques for pies!)

8. Looking SE down Ben Franklin Pkwy? from Logan Sq?

I'd say there are easily 5 or 6 streets worth of similar density not visible from this one perspective.
Probably 20,000 in that one shot. I'd say the 100k is a good estimate.
