Friends of mine just returned from France and told me that they got
very tired of seeing the French win a fencing medal 20 times.  Oh
yes, once during their two week stay, they managed to see another
event.  It seems that the Frence won a gold in swimming (or some
such sport) and that too was replayed constantly.  I guess we should
be happy to live in a country that had so many winners: it reduces
the number of medal winning repetitions...
