A superhero never reveals their true identity

Hey, sorry for the late response. I don't know why no one is talking about this here. I highly recommend any article ever written about the event, as I was there and they have consistently done a good job with coverage of it and grasping the overall point and subsequent success of the event.

All in all, I believe the final count of the attendees was estimated at an amazing 212,000, largely outdoing Glenn Beck's stupid thing that garnered I think 90,000 but claimed much more. They were expecting I think about 40,000, so the portapotty situation was a bit dire, as Jon Stewart continued to make mention of. I have never seen that many people in one area. I was somewhat toward the front, and we would keep standing on each other's shoulders and looking back. People were going back to the Washington Monument. People were in the reflecting pool. And it was a sea--A SEA--of people, not just scattered but condensed into smushed but pleased crowds.

The signs were one of the best parts of the event, because while there were the occasional serious one about Sarah Palin or Fox News...most were poking fun at the horribly unfair and cruel comparison signs you see on the news, like Obama being compared to Hitler and the like. It's been over a year, so forgive me for forgetting most of the ones I saw and photographed, but there are entire sites devoted to the signs that were there, some that even update every day with a new sing of the day, and these sites are very easy to find. I would say the theme of the signs, which also I would say was the theme of the event, was that the polarization of people these days and the media and even politicians is just too damn extreme for most people, who would never see the light of "On Air" because they don't make for good ratings. But the whole event made us all see...we're not alone. And we don't have to be crazy to have a voice.

The event was one of the best things I've ever done, and I can easily say it was one of the best days of my life. The musical acts were just astounding, the acts were funny and purposeful, and I left feeling comfortable and overjoyed that Americans--particularly people in my early 20s age group that are so often called apathetic and inadequate in comparison with past generations--are still capable of outdoing the expected and getting together for a day of peace and purpose. To me, it was my generation's Woodstock.

Here's the wikipedia link. I read it every now and again to remember. I think it is well done and breaks down the event accurately:
