Very at 2 pm the tent, life jackets, flyers and advertising boards on the referendum by water, giving clues to the hundreds of unsuspecting passersby who walk daily and attend to this place to come and ask what happened. The music with lyrics inciting social discussion to those who are fascinated by talking about current politics, but the corn chicha was the main incentive for a large number of citizens who believed that in exchange for a signature was given a glass of chicha . Quickly to resolve this impasse, warning that the chicha was the mystic and divine excuse to share and discuss the referendum, water and life. Various artistic presentations, social song, Andean music, punk, offered warmth amid the rain and caught the attention of colleagues who are more interested in the issue of water privatization. Some were interested in the topic because they believe that those who believe in the power of social control are grains of sand on a beach and not do something, others shared our feelings and are motivated to multiply this initiative in their neighborhoods and communities. Some people called us communists and idealistic scandalous public university, but the atmosphere of respect and tolerance is maintained and the event left the taste of victory in terms of number of firms, publicity and awareness.
