> I thought the Olympics were an international
competition where the best athletes from all
over the world convene in one major city every
four years to show the world their athletic
talent.

Actually, it's every two years now. They divvied
it up so that they don't have winter and
summer games all in one year any more.
There are winter games every four years and
summer games every four years, but they
alternate so that there is one or the other
going on every two. This year is winter games
in SLC.

I think they started doing that with the winter
games of '94. I seem to remember there
being both winter and summer games in '92.
Anyone know for certain?
