Very well behaved crowd. Gracious dude at the top...congratulating Jesse Owens so respectfully, over and over and over and over.

Y'know, it's actually really great to live under totalitarian rule, 'coz you don't have to work up a sweat trying to think about stuff. Everyone's nice, the trains run on time, and it just makes our country so doggone great again!
