With such a beautiful, first-class set of facilities and infrastructure I only
wish that Sydney could host the Olympics and Paralympics again...and
again...and again. I doubt that any host city in the future will be able to
even approach the level we enjoyed last year and it's a shame that the
beautiful facilities are seeing such little use. If my wife qualifies to again
represent the U.S. in equestrian in 2004 I doubt that Athens will have near the
sophistication of facilities we enjoyed in Sydney (and I certainly hope we
don't get to be the guests of the ChiComms in 2008).
