plus the US might boycott by that time if North Korea doesn't have improved relations with the US by then.

N. and S. Korea are different countries w/ different governments. S. Korea is an American allie.

I vote for Russia b/c when I think of snow/ice I think of Russia. And b/c Johnny's my fave and perhaps he would do well in the country he loves so much.

respectfully - Duh, :laugh:
Proximity issue. Israel was not in Palestine when that issue arose. Granted US only did this when in Moscow, and Russia when in LA, but the possibility is just a thought regardless of the outcome. Governments have a tendency to sacrifice the athletes hopes for an agenda of their own, Sometimes.

I am a fan of Asian culture in general (M.O.F. my Foster Mother and ex-wife, couple of girlfriends / friends,etc... were/are Korean) So I would like seeing it there or Sochi, but even Sochi brings the notion that the proximity to the Middle east could be an issue. JAT really.

:rofl: oh, lord I'm really glad I misunderstood you. I was worried there for a sec. I was like surely this person knows the diff. b/w North and South Korea *whew* very much relieved.:agree: I think the proximity wouldn't be a problem unless the U.S. government was afraid of a possible attack from the north at the time. But, you know what the way things are going there might not even be a south Korea by 2014?:no:
