Things seemed to have quieted down some here, so it must be time to turn in. Enrique Mendoza said the opposition will keep the pressure so that the signatures are not discarded on technicalities. Tomorrow promises to be another long and stressful day. I suspect I may have troubles even getting to work in the morning. Hopefully, by the evening the country will be set back in the path of legality, respect for all and democracy. It might be naive, but I can always be an optimist and hope for the best. I can’t post from work, remote updates take too long and I don’t know why. Unless I am trapped at home, the only communication will be through the comments on this post.

Venezuela might be a clear example of that.
