Why bother with sit-in protest when it's miserable and rainy outside when your avatar can do a virtual sit-in?
From EastSouthWestNorth blog:
In Taipei, there is the real-life A Million People Sit-In To Dump A-Bian campaign under miserable rainy conditions. If you don't want to get wet, you can stay home and participate in the virtual online version of One Million People Sit In Quietly Doing Nothing
A-Bian is Taiwan's President Chen Shui-bian, by the way.

We have friends who have played on the Minack stage, and we've seen a production of "Midsummer Night's Dream" during which the full moon came up out of the ocean. A magical place.
And with the amount of white-noise produced by the waves breaking on the shore, it is probably just as well that they do Shakespeare where most of the audience knows the words and the plot. At least that's what I surmise. I could be wrong.
I to saw Midsummers night dream there, when the sun went down it got very cold (a good tip take something insulation to sit on)but bats flew round the lights catching summer moths and fishing boats showing thier lights sailed past... good if you get bored easily.
The Cornwall coast? Ah, yes -- if you look closely, you can see the Major General's Daughters climbing over the rocks, chased by the Pirates of Penzance themselves, accompanied by a Doctor of Divinity who is Located in this Vicinity...
