2. The media/repukes don't want an accurate count.

You'd think that with all the pollsters and statiticians these guys employ that they'd have it down to a science by now: ie: look at a small area of a march and estimate the amount of bodies per square yard. I'm sure they could easily look at a one-block section of 7th Ave and get it within 100-200 people...if they wanted.

But it's better for them to describe a 35-block parade as "Tens of Thousands" rather than hundreds of thousands...or millions.

4. I seem to remember

Something about someone who was using really high tech methods for getting an accurate count. It may have even been posted on DU.
