Just yesterday, it was 120 degrees in the shade! You don't hear anyone
talking about that, now do you? 120 degrees! And that was a rare cool
streak.

There was an article in Time or Newsweek recently that said that the
guy who first promoted the idea of holding the games in Atlanta
presented misleading figures on temperature to the Olympic Committee.
He admits doing this. I guess having the games in Atlanta was more
important to him than the health of athletes and spectators. RD

This guy will be a perfect addition to the L.A. District Attorney's
office (when and if he graduates). He's loud, obnoxious, misogynist, not
very articulate, quite hateful, and enjoys hot, humid weather.<<<<
Nah, sounds more like a recruit for the next "Dream Team." Maybe he'll
graduate in time to defend the next rich celeb who kills somebody.

Doesn't this imply that no one at the IOC had the brains or
iniative to pick up an encyclopedia or atlas and look it independently?
It seems like a basic thing to check before investing a billion bucks or so.

The IOC is made up essentially of the same crowd of people who run the
UN, and let's face it, while its ideals may be admirable, it wouldn't
win any contests for management.

Excuse me, but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that
Atlanta's going to be hot in July.

On meet the press (?) Tim Russert asked one of the organizers,
Andrew Young, how they could possibly represent the temperature
in Atlanta as 75 degrees (F). And wouldn't that be somewhat like
offering to have the Olympics in Buffalo, NY and representing the
average daily temperature as 50 degrees?
.
He ducked the question, by saying that he didn't know where they
got that information - theynever said it was 75 degrees.
.
Yawn. Once a politician...

Some (obviously hot and cranky) commentator made some uncharitable comments
about Billy Payne (Atlanta Olympics committee chairman) traveling the world,
chatting up the lovely 70 degree temperatures in Atlanta in July. Hahahaha.
Tell that to the beach volleyball babes, sweatin' it up in the 118 degree
sand pit today.
I still think the Mongolian flag bearer had the right idea for what to
wear. Man-oh-man!
