At least you have seen some ads for this event!! The station that is broadcasting the event here is one of the smaller ones (ie. not as many viewers as the other more popular TV channels). As you said - money talks! Are there many participants from India for the paralympics? @ Apar: Wow! At least you have seen some ads for this event!!

This is the world that we live in. It really makes us think doesn't it - how our attention is driven by commercial value placed on them by businesses. @ Mitr: For the record, I don’t think you are ignorant at all.

Yes - the games are not over,.. but everyone has already moved on. My hubby says that it is all about commercialism, which is a sad thing. Sponsors and the media do not think that the event can bring them big $$$, so they don't get behind it. :( @ Naan: Thank you for dropping by :) .
