2. K&R - There's something really powerful about the way they're repeating messages...

...so that it echoes through the crowd.

Very cool!

5. How is that unlike the telephone game?

Does that really work? I wonder if the folks at the edges heard something like "Free peas and lettuce will available after dark."

6. No, that's why they pass it back, so everyone can hear. nt

7. Yes, it really works

...and is really necessary.

10. I was trying to be funny...

It's amazing, and I haven't seen that method before... It's unlike the telephone game because it's redundant and parallel, whereas the telephone game is serial.

Anyways, It's stunning how quickly humans naturally innovate and become organized within these mass protests (both OWS and those throughout the Middle East).

They should be proud. I'm proud of them. :)
