Pangur Ben,
This is an appropriate place for your question and any comments anyone wants to make on it.
*that* flag, it seems to me, was displayed as a show of unity against terrorism on a world-wide level. After the Munich games, where Palestine terrorists held hostage and killed 11 Israelis, I think it was meant to be shown that these games were going to be absolutely safe as well as being an opportunity for the world to be included, together with Americans, in some expression of rememberance and unity...remember, it was over seventy countries affected by the attacks of the World Trade Center and the Oplymic games in Utah is the first chance that people from around the world have had to come together since that day. I doubt that the flag will make many more public appearances of that nature, if any.
I haven't a clue about the fire on ice thing but it was cool! [img]smile.gif[/img]
