1. Thank you!

Rooting for Nathan. I think team skating begins today too.

3. Anything before the opening ceremony is easy to miss.

2. I'm not watching any until China changes their ways on human rights

and other issues.

6. I'm lucky I read this again. I thought you were talking about

the short course speedskating, which is one those things I don't understand. As in, why does this event exist?

Figure skating. That I get.

OTA for me. That station comes in well. Five green bars.

Thanks.

7. When I went to college there was a really good female speedskater from that town,

so I watched when she skated, and I thought it was cool. The local police and fire departments all supported her training.

Living in Wisconsin - we have 12 people competing at this Winter Olympics. This is the only time I am interested in most of the non figure-skating sports, but I do like seeing a local compete.

8. A lot of those speed skaters, at least in the trials, were from

the DC area. They were from the Potomac Skating Club. I watched the trials last week. I think most of what I saw was a rerun. One ski jumping event I saw was held on Christmas day at Lake Placid.
