Subject: RE: Aussies ban American Bands
Thanks seed,

I am upset by Gil's remarks and unable to respond in a neutral way at this stage, but you have a good interpretation so far: only one or maybe a small handful of people made the decision. It was only made public this week to the Australian people. The Sydney Olympic plannning body has been making some incredible blunders (whether this is a blunder or not I'm not prepared to comment at this stage - not when I am feeling so sad about being attacked with no request to hear our side of the story, and a lot of Aussies are getting tired of the whole Olympic thing) and most of the decisions of the planning body have only been made public long after the decisions have been made.

I will comment further when I stop feeling so upset.

Helen
