While I appreciate the concept, I will miss actually following those in Tehran and the vital news they were getting out which is now being drowned in a sea of re-tweets.

boy, no wonder they’re frustrated. It’s 11:30am or so there, and there is NO live coverage on American TV anywhere. (at least that I can find)

Thank you Slings and Arrows.

We can all do what Jimmah Carter told us all to do when our embassy was attacked and the hostages were taken in Iran in 1979. We can all light a candle in our window to show our support. (What a leader he was!!!)

To: Daisyjane69
Yup, It's amazing to watch, I feel for those youth yearning to be free. Turned my twitter pic green & chg’d my timezone, figured can't hurt.
