SIR – Being a TV channel-hopper and not an avid sports fan, quite by chance I clicked on the opening of the Olympic Games in Beijing. Wow!
The mass precision and discipline shown during the opening ceremony must have struck a note of terror into all military personnel around the world, even though this was technically a peaceful display, the message was clearly there!
Perhaps I am worrying too much about this sleeping giant – but one wonders.
After seeing this wonderful opening ceremony, I would paraphrase – the future’s bright, and the future’s red!
STANLEY D PARR, Pershore.
