I attended one in Amsterdam.
A turnout of about 70,000 to 80,000

And it felt very right doing so indeed

I couldn't go today coz the streets were too icy.

i checked cnn's site and they're saying that in athens were about 50,000 people ...well, their headline is "violence at greek antiwar rally", but it was very peacefull!

(except from a few incidents between a small number of the so-called anarchists and the police)... some greek media said people were around 200,000 and some others that they were about 100,000 to 150,000...

all i know is that it was vast!
