What a crock of shit.

I guess it was a brave move for China to take on something like the Olympics, and tbh I think its already starting to backfire.
Wait until day 1, when you cant see more then 5m infront of you cause of pollution, with riot police having to arrest thousands of Tibet protesters.

The same thing happened at The Big Day Out a few years ago, didn't work out at all.

I just had an awesome visual run through my head. It'll never happen, but would be very cool. It was thousands of athletes walking in the opening ceremony parade, all of them (or most of them) with a piece of black gaffer-tape (duct-tape) over their mouths, or over their country's flag on their uniforms.
