   I agree.  And now Tibet is somehow a big deal, when it was always a big deal   
   anyway!   
      
   Tibet seems to be the "latest fad", when there should have been protests   
   about China getting the games in the first place.   
      
   Incidentally, Toronto was running a close 2nd to China when that decision   
   happened and the fact that the Winter Games in Vancouver were already a go,   
   influenced the decision.
