Dear Team
With the various changes, I post the facilitator's
duty roster as revised. Again, you can be anti-Olymoics
or pro-Olympics, dead serious or satirical. Those without
a TV like JVK, are welcome to write on the joys of missing
the Olympics. I'm a little concerned no-one is covering
the Olympic synchronised swimming, but am glad at the inclusion
of unnoficial Olympic sports like my "Men's Literary Criticism, Sydney 2000"
"Bullfighting, Sydney 2000" or "Beer-Pong, Sydney 2000". Coverage of
the separate Olympic Chess competition would similarly be welcome.
Let's all have fun with our strange commissions, and in a month
or so, I'll start a file of posted poems and tout for a co-editor to assist.

PS My objections to the Opening Ceremony were largely aesthetic
as I'd tuned in late after Going Greek at the White Village restaurant,
which was more fun (and didn't cost $ 30 million in a city where
homelessness is as large problem).
PPS I'm quite happy to receive refusals or requests for other sports
via [log in to unmask] but I'm off to the German Club to compete
in another unrecognised sport in which I'm a grandmaster.
