   In a message dated 12-11-14, Paul Quinn said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Good afternoon Paul,   
      
   Though it's morning here now.   
      
    HG> Forgot to mention that I was impressed at the sight of the Sidney   
    HG> Olympic Park Arena. When were Olympics held there?   
      
   PQ> Back in 2000, Holger.  Quite a success, they say.  Have a look at   
   PQ> this webpage, mate:   
      
   PQ>   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_Summer_Olympics   
      
   I wonder how I have succeeded to suppress that info. I still vividly   
   remember the winter Olympics in 1992. The reason may be that I took   
   my GS, (the one who now works in Stockholm) to eastern Finland when   
   the schools had a winter holiday and we didn't have any snow here.   
      
   He likes skiing as I do .   
      
   PQ> Thank you.  It's cooling off at present, from an expected high of   
   PQ> 33C with about 65-70% humidity (that's what it felt like earlier).   
      
   Yeah, it's cooling down here too but we are down to below 5C but above   
   freezing still.   
      
   PQ> We're presently just hunkered-down waiting for a series of   
   PQ> thunderstorms to sweep through the region.  Hereabouts in summer, we   
   PQ> know there's a storm coming when it starts to cool down.  Though,   
   PQ> the weather radar website helps as well...  :)  ...   
      
   Yes I saw that at the last V8 races. On saturday the second race was   
   stopped because of the heavy rain and the sunday race was also stopped   
   by a heavy rain and thunder storm. The arcs were visible on the TV too.

   PQ> triangle.)   
      
   Thanks!   
      
   Seasons Greetings,   
      
   Holger
