"Two Billion People At Stewart/Colbert Rally"
Two Billion People At Stewart/Colbert Rally

Everyone calls it "The Rally." No further explanation needed. All my friends and neighbors are going, and I may just have to go too as a trustworthy crowd estimator and Sheryl Crow reviewer. I just got off the phone with a friend who is on one of 200 buses from New York City rented by HuffPo to carry people to the Stewart-Colbert rally. Extrapolating from that figure I can estimate the crowd size at 2 billion people, plus or minus 200 million.


Everyone is having fun at the expense of Fox, Beck and the teabaggers and their delusional followers! :rofl:

Let's see Fox dispute THESE numbers!

7. One of my ET friends sent me a picture taken from Europa; Jupiter's Sixth Moon.
It showed slightly more than 700,000 people in the vicinity of the stage.

My friend could only narrow the picture down to a little over 63 square miles, given that it's about 40 light-minutes away at the moment, but damn, there were a LOT of people in it.

Waldo was there. I always knew he was a Democrat.
