[ March 18: comment by SUN:
< http://www.indybay.org/news/2006/03/1806137.php >
On Saturday, 18 March 2006, an anti-Bush demo gathers in SF's Civic Center plaza at 11AM. Meanwhile, in Golden Gate Park, the Anarchist Book Fair runs from 10AM to 6PM.
Because these major events conflict, nobody can fully participate in both.
ONE of these Saturday events should have been postponed 24 hours.... [....] ]
