I disagree. I read from the news (which I believe is not a news from China), that the Beijing Olympics is the most watch on TV than the previous one also the tickets for events were sold out unlike in the Athen Olympic. I think a lot of people around the world are paying more attention to this Olympic than before. I'm outside of China and where I am people only talks about the Olympic games.

Yes you are right, I am in china and feel the craze here and when I talk to my parent in my home country India, they ask much about Olympics and I feel there is much craze than ever before for this Olympics.

good morning wannafly.coz during daily life we have seen so much traditional thing, and the movies directed by Yimou Cheung. Maybe we are little tired of such expresion way or called it Chinese way. Actually,this ceremony is awesome, foreign friends enjoyed it very much, coz they saw more about this great country. Trditional is international.

when i am thirteen years old, it was the Atlata olympic games. Because my home got a TV, lots of neighbors came my home to watch the games. when the china delegation won the gold medal, they felt very happy. we hold the olympic games in Beijing, our capital city, don't you think we chinese people pay attention to olympic game? i think that's intricate.

I have noticed that here the Olympic games aren't on the TV as much as they were years and years ago. I don't think that it has any thing to do with it being in China. I watched the opening ceremony last night. It was spectacular. I really can't find the words to describe the beauty of it all. There is such a time difference between the United States and china that I think that will have some impact. I look forward to seeing the games them selves.
