Oct 13, 2007 - by far the most superb and beautiful opening ceremony in the history of the Olympic games...I'm of Greek origin and i think what the Russians did by paying tribute to Greece..the Olypics birthplace...was very touching...well done to the Russians..and God bless you all.

captainalbator Says:

Aug 26, 2008 - It was probably the only card that Carter had to play. He felt he had to do something about the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Someone probably made the recommendation he went along with it. In hindsight, it really made little difference.

Anchiukas Says:

Aug 27, 2008 - Super! Impressive! Briliant! Like was sad in opening, "Long live sport and peace"! The olimpics is spoiling by nations, which put under boycott, not which organise it.
