Hi all, just came from the Boston demonstration - we had a good-sized crowd,
I'm guessing about 50 people, mostly dressed in black for the theme "Funeral
for Fair Use Rights" - A black coffin labeled "FAIR USE" was displayed.

Rousing speeches were given by the two main organizers and several inspired
participants!    Press was in attendance and was interviewing several
participants when the protest ended.

This was a very effective demonstration, with high visibility for the
corporate-lunch crowd - Congrats & thanks to the organizers and
participants!
