  1. The lighting of the Olympic Torch today brought a tear to my eye when it evoked that moment at the 1936 Berlin Olympics when a young yamaka-wearing German athlete, a symbol of Aryan purity, lit that Olympic Torch. That moment was made even more memorable when a group of Hitler's personal SS bodyguard hoisted the athlete onto their shoulders in celebration and then playfully tossed him into the flames so that he could enjoy the honor not only of lighting the torch but also helping to fuel it. Little know fact: The CCP had planned to have Peng Shuai light the torch today but had to change their plans at the very last moment when it was discovered that she had accidently doused herself from head to toe with gasoline.
