From Athens to....Athens!: The Olympic Flame will make a pretty stunning relay this time out: Since the journey from where they light it (Greece) to the location of the Games (Athens) is so short, they're sending it literally around the world: the Flame will stop in every city that has hosted the modern Summer Games.
Again ... when will the Greek government lighten up and correct their mistake? This is a pretty neat idea, and I'm glad they are going everywhere. Really, though, it would have been funnier if the guy had just lit the torch, run around the block and come right back.
