I don't know there is just something in my mind saying that the IOC, IFL and/or VANOC would not continue on and put others in danger if they didn't feel a) this was a freak accident and b) they have fixed the problem and if for whatever reason it happens for a second time in the history of the sport they have done enough to prevent it.

But I'm sure three governing bodies would put lives in danger even if they knew it could happen again....right?
I have no doubt the track is safe now, a lower start will greatly reduce speeds and g-forces and an actual barrier in the area has been added. I have no issue with the track as it will be used. My issue is with the track as it was.

As for the investigation, an afternoon worth of investigation followed by a statement that completely absolves the party doing the investigating is clearly not something that should just be accepted as the be all and end all.
