Communication...CAN'T BE STOPPED!

Communication is key. There is no way that it can be stopped. In Egypt, as we speak there are protest over the way the government handles its self as well as the community. The government has even tried to stop the people from sending out Face book Statuses as well as Twitter Twitts.



As read on the Huffington Post.

"Protests started on Tuesday, January 25, when -- inspired by the successful revolution in Tunisia -- thousands of people began taking to the streets to protest poverty, rampant unemployment, government corruption and autocratic governance of President Hosni Mubarak, who has ruled the country for thirty years. These were the first protests on such a large scale to be seen in Egypt since the 1970s. The government responded by blocking Twitter, which was being used by organizers to coordinate protests. " -(Excerpt for the Huffington Post)

As I was reading my TWITTER I saw that Katie Couric had twitted that she was enroute to Egypt and would keep everybody up todate about everything that is happening to this point. We are glad to get the new information that is coming out. I am sending prayers to cover them and be with them.  This is such a big deal and it effects alot in the U.S. This is someting that we all need to be aware of and understand what the effects could be for us.
