Finally there is better access to the Olympic cauldron that has been drawing huge throngs. The fence that had trapped the flame like a caged animal has been moved closer and a gap has been left for cameras to get a picture without chain link obstruction. Particularly gratifying is that insiders no longer can roam at will and flaunt their ability to approach, touch, and pose with the flame up close. Best of all, an adjacent rooftop has been made into a viewing platform with no chain link at all. Predictably there is now another long lineup, but the continuing record warmth and sunshine has kept the crowds festive and friendly.
