So yeah--I should probably try to stay up...

Are we talking just Summer games or are they 'goldless' in the Winter games too?

It must be something to be so closely connected with your heritage. 3/4 of my family tree has been in North America for 300+ years. The other 1/4 came over in the late 19th century from Russia, but they were Germans. I didn't really know much about them 'til recently. So I've always kind of been just a generic American. I envy you guys.
