Just wondering if anyone else is overwhelmed with the realization of what's just happened - people have protested a dictatorship to the point that it is no more... The millitary is running the show while they write a constition. Hopefully they can learn from our mistakes...

I hope this goes well, I'm just afraid that people thing good things will start falling from teh sky.

It will be interesting. It might show the Middle East how to do it. There are many other countries that are prime for it. One good thing in there old constitution was that no party good have religiuos ties. Which helped keep the extremists out of the government.

That really puts a damper on other dictatorships in similar situations. It will be an interesting next few months and years.

I see this as a good thing, but makes me a little nervous since that region is so unstable outside of Egypt. Hopefully they can keep things together during the turnover.
