I'm glad to hear that everything is going reasonably well with the Olympic
Transport System in Sydney. When I worked at the Atlanta Olympics we had our
share of problems of which everyone is well aware. One of the real tests is
coming up though; the Paralympics which follows the Olympics. The crowds will
not be as big, but there will be an enormous amount of handicapped people
trying to contend with the transport system; and people in wheelchairs cannot
move as quickly as the able-bodies. Hope things go as smoothly for the
Paralympics since I'll be there with my wife who is competing for the U.S. in
equestrian sports.
