Hi Jake,
Logical jump to conclusions, but not correct as it happens. I was actually trying to find the names of the women on the US team, because I met someone a while back who was hoping to be on it and I was curious whether she made it. Never found the list of team members, but I did find that blog.
I'm more into speed skating, myself. As a wannabe, not so much an observer. But I'm a lousy skater and afraid of falling and breaking my bones, so I don't have much future in it, alas...
But various people have told me that zambonis actually have VW engines, so there really was Vanagon content to my post!
Joy
