    Enjoy the once in a lifetime event. Seattle will probably never get the Olympics 'cause we are too much of a NIMBY town.

    Methinks Seattlers would react like Vancouverites --strong camps against and some for the Olympics.

    You're close enough. You could even take the train. Amtrak has added an extra train for Vancouver specifically to off-set the Canada-U.S. border car traffic. Our train station is located downtown. Problem would be finding cheap accommodation right now.

    Sure if any TE'ers came, let's go out for coffee and a squirrley bike ride in the mayhem.

    heh, heh,heh and the 400 bikes that the Dutch consulate's offering as part of the Olympic bike share system at their welcome house. The consulate is panicking abit now...800 people have registered interest for a 10-15 kms. bike ride. They are imploring people to bring their own bikes instead of riding a Dutch bike.
