Why wouldn't there be as many thrills and excitement as in the "regular" Olympics? Personally, I think it would be more amazing to see a handicapped swimmer win a gold medal than some pumped-up "normal" android (or whatever the hell Phelps is). Oh, well.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I hadn't even heard of the Paralympics before this. As others commented on the Boston Globe website, this has received very little media coverage, and that's a shame.
