Wow, the arrogance.. Hopefully a tropical cyclone doesnt decide to visit, that'd be a LOT of rockets!

Just like in USSR! I also wonder what do they do if a category 5 typhoon decides to approach at the middle of the Olympics. People in Florida probably remember what happened during the opening of Athens Summer Olympics back in 2004 in their backyard.
