    I dont suppose anyone knows how many have died, if any?
    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.

    It's the deathtoll only until 1 februari, it's now the 13th. Going to be much higher maybe thousands by now, but what did you expect really. Kudo's to Egypt.

    Egyptian military dissolves parliament and announces it will retain power for at least 6 months. Ah well, it was good whilst it lasted..
