Environmentalists go crazy....

Don't they have anything better to do than try to meddle with the Olympics?
The Olympic flame continued burning at full force Thursday as organizers ignored a request from environmentalists that it be turned down in honor of the first anniversary of a key global warming treaty.

The cauldron, which is nearly 200 feet high, consumes 1,500 cubic meters of natural gas per hour. Organizers said the flame could go out if they reduce the gas flow.

"If you reduce it too little then there's no visible change, if you reduce it too much you risk extinguishing it," Giuseppe Gattino, spokesman for the Turin organizing committee, said. "It's not the same as using a burner at home."
