Beijing Olympics 2008

Okay - I can see both sides. I'm not naive about the Olympics being big business. But I wonder whether this will be the case in 2012?
We're simply not in the right time zone surely?

I'll be mad as hell if they schedule events during the night for financial reasons. I don't care whether it's pandering to the dollar, the yen or the bhat - if I can't watch the Olympics at a reasonable time in my own city then I don't see why my taxes should pay to hold it in the first place.
