Off for a while: Will I miss something big?

November 2, 2002

I will be going away for ten days. While I can keep posting while I am gone, it certainly is not the same to talk about what is happening from afar. I will only post if something which appears truly important happens.


The number of people in Plaza Altamira decreased significantly in the last two days. On Monday, there will be the march to hand in the signatures for the referendum. Thus, next week should be quite interesting. Chavez does appear to be willing to negotiate, buit this is not thefirst time this has happened so it might be meaningless. A reputable poll came out yesterday saying that in the question proposed for the refrendum 73% of the people would vote against the President and only 17% for him. Doesn’t sound good for him.
