well, mag, some of the people on the ferry and bart maybe showed at the march, but, you can't assume that they all did. when would have been the heaviest concentration of people? is the 1:45 pm time that the chronicle used feasably the lowest crowd time? did the chronicle have a interest in projecting a lower turnout than what the organizers projected? i don't live there so i do not know if the newspaper has an agenda. -----Original Message----- From: Magenta Raine To: [log in to unmask] Sent: 2/27/2003 3:59 PM Subject: Re: the anti war march in san fran In the chronicle, they did say that only one long photo was taken at 1:45 p.m. the ferry boats took 7,000 to SF, that was 6,000 more than on a normal Sunday, and the Bart trains took 185,000 to the 4 major SF stops, thats a record! So, by these two means alone there were at least 190,000 in the march or at the rally site. This does not include in the public SF busses, or people who took hundreds of private busses with their groups.
