    • I was in London for two weeks in July, and I kept reading and listening how in the world London was going to pull that off. Six years before the games they have not decided where to build or how (thats what I heard last, I guess now they know) However walking through the city I found many deficiencies in traffic (very slow) phisical space, and I also noticed how decayed the subway system was (not to mention expensive, even more than Tokio). So really they do have a big feat ahead, considering that time is not on their side.
      I should ad that the museums and the croissants were lovely.

    • isn't this always the question: all that money, all that construction, all for 2 weeks of sport. what happens when it's over? here's an article that begins to answer that. what do you think? is it all worth it?

      ps. and that's a nice logo, what was wrong with that one, and why did we end up with the hideous pink design mess that is the present 2012 logo? ;o)
