Pretty sad this is what it takes for a city to clean up...proving that it's possible to slow all pollution we put into the air. As soon as the games are over it's just gonna go back to the way it was...sad!!

Wait until athletes are walking around with air filter masks on. That is going to make for some bad publicity.

The oil drop could be somewhat helped right now by this Chinese driving ban.

What a total embarrasement for the olympics. Hey, lets have the games in a toxic waste dump of a country. Nevermind the deplorable human rights record of the iron-fisted dictatorship. Please excuse the slight media censorship during the visit. These are all understandable and acceptable to the IOC.

Not to mention out of all the countries Chinese cheat more then anyone. Not saying we don't have cheaters also, we do, just that I think Chinese Olympic officials are in on it and not like ours who try to bust them.
