    I don't know if there are any fans of <a href="http://www.democracynow.org">Democracy Now</a> here, but I thought I'd let any of you know that Amy Goodman is going to be in Houston on Friday at Diverse Works. She'll be giving a speech on "Independent Media in the Time of War". Should be pretty interesting.

    <a href="http://www.kpft.org/amygoodman.htm">Here's KPFT's info page on it</a>.

    Anyone else planning on going?

    Did anyone else go to this. I was blown away. Better than I expected, and I had HIGH expectations. There must have been 300 people there at least. Diverse Works was packed!! Amy began speaking at around 8:20 and began the Q+A with the audience at around 9:30. It ended around 11:10. Remarkable woman, and the best darned reporter out there. Her experiences in Timor in the 90s were truly remarkable.
