    It's not unusual for Google to pull copyrighted material from YouTube but it may be the first major, public copyright protection of the Vancouver Olympics, during which the IOC and broadcasters are taking extra steps to control access to coverage.

    Several days ago I saw a video of an interview with one of the athletes familiar with this run. She was commenting on how much faster, taller and more dangerous this run was than in Torino. Apparently Troino was pretty bad and she was very concerned someone would die this year.
