>Two weeks to go :o) Already we've seen changes made towards at least a limited democracy or greater freedoms and rights and better economic conditions in the other countries trying to avoid the same situation as just occurred in Egypt...

Kinda surprised you give any credence to those changes -
it is more on the level of further increasing debt when the gov is already in too deep on part of the economic conditions.
And I thought that rights were not "given" - aren't they declared as being god ordained after being fought over and won...
