A million people at the inauguration of Barack Obama

Operation Sovereign Storm is a planned incursion on Canberra, ACT, Australia on the 12th of February at 9am.

The name of the incursion was chosen by Riccardo Bosi, echoing his military past.

The Illuminati, propaganda unit at Cookerpedia decided to do an estimate of the crowd because they were sick of cookers claim that there were a million people there. Anyone who knows canberra knows that the lawns outside APH are not going to hold fucking 1 million people, but anyway.

Area of loserpalooza

The attached images show Obama's 1 million for his 2009 inauguration compared with the numbers for Loserpalooza yesterday. I've also used google maps to get an estimate for the area of the national mall and the usable area of federation mall.

Another estimate of area

A couple of notes: I've included the garden area in federation mall because the cookers were definitely overflowing slightly beyond the grassy mall area itself. I'm also not sure how much of washington mall was captured in that photo, so i've tried to be conservative.

TL;DR Based on Obama's 1 million number and comparative analysis of the area size of the washington mall and the grassy area of federation mall, I estimate the cooker protest yesterday to be ~12,500-14,000.
