200,000

According to Italian press reports and those of colleagues who have been over at the Vatican the queue to see the Pope lying in state has already gone over the 200,000 mark. The basilica won't even open to the public for another 2 hours! I'd dearly love to have one final look at him but I honestly don't think I can reconcile a day's queuing with my other commitments...
