Any bus passengers have a view on this?
Yes. I hope they don't get their bonus, and that they strike during
the Olympics. I hope that as a consequence thousands of people - both
spectators and participants - miss their events. Why? Well, I've paid
for the damned games, and I want to get some entertainment out of it.

There are quite a few crucial differences. Amongst the biggest is that
the Olympics are actually supposed to be fun.


But big bangs are fun !
