      Well since the Chinese are going to get all the medals anyway, why even take part? oh, and there's Tibet, too, and the death camps.

          Here's a story on the potential cancelation of the torch relay. Has that ever happened before?

                No boycott. We boycotted the Moscow Olympics when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan, and the end result was we only hurt our athletes.

                The Olympics should be above politics.

                  I think it would be the "right" thing to do so I voted yes. The reality is that the Chinese have very long memories and do hold a grudge...perhaps not the best position to be in with the coming new economic order.

                            No, we shouldn't boycott it. But we should bust the government of China's balls the whole while.
                            I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
