1. It has to do with the protests in Tibet
and the Chinese politicians beating it down. Here is a short news story about what happened in Paris, France

2. It's ridiculous. I understand protest, but the flame has
nothing to do w/ what the Chinese government is doing. I say, find another way to protest.
