I expect Jesse Jackson to show up any minute and demand something be done about the under-representation of blacks in figure skating.

I am personally more afraid that the gays will demand that same sex couples be allowed into the pairs and ice dance competitions. Fortuneately, money still rules the olympic games and too many people would turn off the tv if that ever happened.

Yeah, and we all know how there are no gays in figure skating already! ;)

I hadn't considered that -- a new civil rights testing ground! Now that you've thought of it, you can bet that others will, too. And even if they should lose, they can still try to have things their way, and make things ugly, while they're at it!
