The name of the game is money!  It was when in the US and sure is the 
same thing no matter where the games are held. I am curious to know the amount 
adverts are paying for placement on NBC during the broadcast, even though it is 
delayed.  
No worries, a boost for shortwave.  I have to say their discription of 
what shortwave is has a little to be desired.  They don't know what they 
are missing!

  Hi Hard-Core-DX List,
   
  Your may be interested in this article from the 
  Australian Finacial Review on an Aussies view of NBC's Olympic   
  coverage. Shortwave gets a short mention in para 8.
   
  
   
  For those of you still coming to the Olympics 
  some answers to FAQ's.
  1. Yes you can get fresh milk every 
  day.
  2. Yes Australia does have ATM's
  3. No you can not see Kangaroos in Sydney's main 
  street.
   
  Cheers
