I have to hand it to the pro-democracy people in London and Paris - I thought we were going to have a tough time outdoing them. But hey. This is San Francisco. I'm glad I ran across the Golden Gate this morning because I bet it'll be closed to pedestrians until after the torch leaves (it is at the moment).
Oddly enough, even though it was early morning and deserted, I saw workers with the access door to the North Tower open. I didn't even realize you could go inside it. In ten years here I'd never seen that before. I wonder if they had a heads-up?
The torch doesn't even get here until Wednesday. And in Paris they couldn't even make it to the end of the route.
IF IT'S BAD FOR THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT, IT'S GOOD FOR EVERYONE ELSE.

Over at Scalzi's Whatever, I think he nailed it. I'm going by memory, but it was something like "If you need to hide the Olympic torch, you're doing something wrong."
