[quote=APAULT,323798]The opening and closing ceremonies were great, but totally irrelevant. Of real importance were the fantastic achievements of the sportsmen winners and losers alike. Just one example of so many you might choose... cerebral palsey athletes who fell while racing, their minds willing their bodies to go beyond their ability to control them. Some had managed to gain greater control over wayward limbs while running than in walking and everday activity. Magnificent, heroic efforts in my view, tho many of them would probably deny it in thgeir modesty. The Beijing orgaanising was excellent so that everyone was able to give their best. Pity about some of the rain though, but everyone got on with their tasks. Well done.[/quote]
