Posting this from a BBS in Mexico City through an anonymous remailer.

Witnesses reported seeing military intelligence trucks parked outside the Coyoacán telephone exchange on Calle Del Carmen.
At that exact same hour, the pirate FM broadcast relay in Coyoacán that had been re-transmitting Nova's songs went silent.

The mural in Coyoacán still shows his face, but people say when the streetlight flickers it glitters into someone else.

Mexico was Node 04. Korea was Node 03. Both had government communication blackouts during major political transitions.
