While I don't condone the message (separation b/w oil and state? WTF?), guess what - it has everybody thinking about the stunt, even if its seething hatred. there were people watching from below, cars lined up in traffic, and media covering the stunt on numerous outets.

In a lot of ways, the protestors succeeded. And they probably don't care how mad and inconvinienced you are.
Its called internet bravado, but I can understand the hate. I'm all for discussion and exchanging of differing views. Greenpeace isn't interested in that. They are all for assanine stunts like this. What pisses me and others off is the smugness of their spokespeople. I am pretty sure if I knew any of these guys doing the tower thing, I would dislike them intensely for their whole self important attitude.
