You are right..Humans are the centre of Olympic Games, not the machines and the right timing of peoples' movements...

Flame of Prometheus Interesting symbolism of the Olympic Torch A recurrent mythic model for revolutionaries and early romantics was prometheus Who Stole fire from the Gods for the use of mankind. It is the torch of Prometheus It is a symbol for the age of enlightenment or the illuminati. or the illuninated ones holders of the light. Mmmmm I doubt the illuminati cares about the lofty ideals of the Olympic Games. I think we are all been had.

At last, can't you see the symbolism of the Athens 2004 lighting? It is the cauldron that comes to meet the athlete! Man dominates the machines. Human beings were the centre of the Athens 2004 opening ceremony! That's all. Nothing more, nothing less...

that "giant cigar" you refer to, is a leaf of olive, that symbolises piece and friendship! This is called originality and symbolism

This is magnificent. I've been to Greece and loved it. Come to Mexico anytime my Greek friends.
