I hope this isn't what I think it is.

The Revolution won't be televised. It will be streamed via Real Player.

I would guess that things are not so bad;

Isn't Uruguay playing Bolivia in the Soccer World Cup in La paz tonight? Perhaps it's just a celebration and you heard fireworks. Or police dispursing soccer hooligans.

Keep your eyes and ears open and your head down when necessary. And for heaven's sake, evacuate your position if it gets tense.
We can read reports from elsewhere if this is big.
Take care, FRiend!

You are in the drug cartel capital of the world, probably just an argument over distribution rights. Keep your head down.

LA PAZ, Bolivia, Oct 14 (Reuters) - Bolivia's Congress gave the Supreme Court the green light on Thursday to investigate and possibly sentence ex-President Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada over deaths during clashes between the army and protesters last year.
Sanchez de Lozada, a center-right leader now living in the United States, was forced out of office a year ago by the massive protests against his policies of opening up the economy of Bolivia, one of Latin America's poorest countries.
An estimated 67 people died and 200 were injured in protests by farmers, unemployed miners, and coca growers. The demonstrators also opposed a government natural gas export plan they said would benefit Bolivia's estranged neighbor Chile.
Demonstrators gathered on Thursday to celebrate outside Congress after both houses of Congress voted jointly to approve the trial. Of 130 deputies and 27 senators, 126 lawmakers voted in favor. Fifteen members of Sanchez de Lozada's cabinet will also go before the high court.
Thousands of other marchers were heading to La Paz to join demonstrations planned for Friday.

About fifteen minutes ago, I started to hear what I think was gunfire and cannon fire from right outside the cafe. It was shortly followed by bullhorns booming and people chanting. The gunfire is intermittent now. Eat your burrito and act like nothing is happening. When you look up, just smile and go back to eating.

To everyone, I think it's quieting down. There is still chanting, but no gunfire. No one in the cafe seems worried anymore (they were ten minutes ago). I don´t think it was a revolution, apparently there was a large march of indigineous people that the police tried to disperse or something -- firing blanks into the air, these were the sounds I was hearing. I don't really know much more, and I'm unsure about the veracity of even that. I'm sorry if I got you all worried or excited over nothing.
The streets are relatively quiet now, so I´ll be signing off and heading back to my hotel.
