You need to figure out why you're angry before you give yourself a stroke.

Try this: 1. Pull this post up in threaded mode 2. examine each of my posts.

In the ancient Olympics, I believe the boxers wrapped their hands in leather thongs studded with metal. I'm just guessing here, but someone probably got hurt. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> That would fit my definition of "dog eat dog, cut throat, win at all cost" competition. I also understand the games were conducted in the nude and with religous fervor. But, I wasn't there so I don't know for sure.

The point is, for any organization or activity to continue its existence it must adapt to change. The Olympic image has been sullied by cheaters. The IOC is very aware of the problem.
