Pryvit!

Didn't go to maydan today. Short of two drive-by's with Ola and the kids: "razom nas bahato" blaring on the car speakers and the kids shouting yush-chen-ko out the open windows. There's a loop you can drive where you pass the majority of the govt. building blockade points.

Danyo and Liza had their satellite dish tuned to the coordinates for the Maydan camera direct feed, so we get an uncut, unedited, live feed when at home. Yushchenko's speech this evening followed speeches by about six religious leaders of different religions. He made it clear that the demands remain (1. president to dismiss yanuk and his govt, 2- new staff at CEC, 3 - sign election reform law (after VR writes and approves it). Also made it clear that he is not accepting the parliament vacation and is requiring new election legislation by Wednesday latest, otherwise he says there will be no time for implementation. Blockades of cabinet of ministers and pres. Admin. remain (without any apparent hesitation). Tymoshenko was not on stage.

The kids have caught on to the civil disobedience thing: "Razom nas bahato…nas ne klasty spaty!"

Back to maydan tomorrow afternoon.

Petro out.
