    thermal imaging would pick up a tent as very light blue and red if someone was in it definitly.

    it would appear very dark blue/black if vacant.

    I hope out of all this something is accomplished.

    What is pretty annoying is the fact that the hash tag is massively used on Twitter, yet it's never been trending, not as far as I know anyway. Rumour has it someone within wall street put allot of money into Twitter, I'm not to clued up on that though.

    Like someone said, the internet is the only place that really gives us a fair shot at communicating against what we don't like about the system. We live in a very strange world, what happens when it all falls apart.

    Trends are not done on popularity like they used to be they are done on spikes of interest. This came about due Bieber & varionts of Bieber hashtags dominating trending.

    See they've got a massive tv to watch now, not really the audience the council had in mind when they dreamt up movies at the monument.

    Err, what? I never anything about the media.

    It's a video displaying Americas response, via some pretty brutal policing tactics, to peaceful protest. The reason I posted it is because it's dark as fuck & probably a hefty indicator of things to come.

    In the UK there's a whole pile of that, all stockpiled ready for use and an army of police trained to use it. It's all very nice and polite until the elites are challenged then it all comes out and the bigger the challenge the more brutal the response

    "Greed, for lack of a better word, is good. Greed is right. Greed works. Greed clarifies, cuts through, and captures, the essence of the evolutionary spirit. Greed, in all of its forms; greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked the upward surge of mankind and greed, you mark my words, will not only save Teldar Paper, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the U.S.A."

    I'm all for the point the protesters are making, but I don't see how camping out in a public place will make any difference.

    People change things through action, not through setting up tents in the middle of cities. You try to change the system, if that doesn't work then you tear it down and start afresh. This protest can (and will) be easily ignored by both those in power and those they are protesting against.
