Good to hear...
A substantial effort was underway to provide a ballot question opposed to taxpayer bailouts for the cost overruns. Perhaps just building it, even in the early stages of the effort, was helpful!

Time to build a permanent Summer Olympics Village in Greece, and kill two birds with one stone.
Reduce the corruption in the IOC, and give Greece guaranteed income every four years.
