I'm not up to speed on "how that works" but I remember getting a letter
from IBM asking if I would be willing to donate as much as a month of my
time to helping out in the "Olympic Effort" in system support,etc,etc.

They ended up pulling IBM employees out of slots for months at a time
to handle this fairly huge network... This was no "minor" event that
could
be slammed together with a few spread sheets and a couple of laptops..

I got the impression that NOBODY gets paid for anything... You must pay
the I.O.C. for the privilege of "being there".....(I been wrong before)
