Crowd estimates used to be provided by the National Park Service, but the agency stopped counting crowds in 1997 after being accused of underestimating the size of the Million Man March in 1995.
The 300,000 estimate in the CBS articlle is cited as being conservative (pardon the pun).

Now we get an estimate by the freakin New York Times and some aireal photo 'experts' that arent even 1/3 of CBS's 'conservative' estimate. Not to say that NYT is 'in the bag' for the liberals or anything...

But evidently there are alot more pepole that 'care' than you would be comfortable with.
