I dropped by Freedom Plaza today. It was pretty crowded, between 500 and 1,000 people. I couldn't stay as long as I had hoped because of my smoke sensitivity. An hour or so of exposure can mean a day or two of sickness, and I think activist groups should be more aware of the disability issues involving smoke, and more pro-active to try to ensure that smoke-free space can exist.
