"Coates said:  \n \n\n\n\t\"The Opening Ceremonies cost in the order of $75 million (£54 million/€63 million) to $100 million (£72 million/€84 million), it's a major exercise for any Organising Committee.\n \n\n\n\t\"It puts a stamp on the Games and it's very important to the broadcasts that follow and it's my very strong recommendation that the Premier, and the Lord Mayor and the Sports Minister be there and understand it.\" \n\t \n\tI LUV this dude - a guy after my own heart!!  He forgot to say:  Fuggedabout the sports parts of it!!  \n\t \n\t With those words, I forgive him now for hijacking and eliminating a costly race for 2032!!  \n \n"
