Is there a subway that runs underneath?

Maybe I can sell a bond to the protesters.

I don't think Mayor Blomberg will let these folks set up camp with kitchens and tents and stuff for a few hrs let alone a few months...If they don't have a permit they will be arrested....

I hope not. A dull, uneventful demonstration is worse than no protest at all.

The time to mount this one is around 3:30 PM and make it loud and angry when the Exchange shuts down. The disadvantage there is the third shift of cops will be coming on and there will be plenty of them. But if the mob is dense enough that only the fringe can be moved a few at a time, Wall Street is very narrow and it could take many hours to clear it.

These guys don't seem to care much about PR:

Probably 20,000 UNION members being PAID to protest. I heard they have joined in the fun.

get back to me when it gets to 100,000 and the people who have to live there get SICK of it all...

The more the merrier. Hopefully one of these days the numbers will be sufficient and their behavior, law/permit violations, or whatever will require NY's finest to move their asses out of there. Let the games begin!
