Protesting the Year 2007

Hundreds of French people protested New Year's, with just say "No" to 2007.

Our son Willie was home over the holidays and alerted us to the protest. He supports the protest.
Time, progress, the need to measure progress by time - - are all part of the problem, not the solution.

Julie's take-on-this is that Willie, along with millions of other 21st century folks, sees "progress" not as progress but as an extension of the 20th century. And right now what was normal for the 20th century is killing civilization, if not the planet.  A minute into the new year, the French protesters began chanting "Non to 2008."
