Is there any confirmation of the real numbers of protestors from 2 days ago yet?

The most recent reports I have received lead me to believe that the original numbers are likely inflated, as I reported previously.

The numbers reported widely of 2,000 demonstrators have been refuted by eyewitnesses I have heard from personally. In one location I heard credible reports of 7-10,000 demonstrators in one location. Understand that the numbers are hard to verify due the fact that the demonstrations are scattered all over.

Behrooz has revised his estimate to 70-100,000 demonstrators. I doubt we will ever get better estimates beyond this.
