If you can save the video of that coconut competition it would be nice to watch. 

Thier live-streaming “service” is about as good as an amateur home video. It’s run by volunteers who are working with almost nothing to create something, so kudos to them. I do intend to save and list the livestreams, just like I did with the Med. Games. I’m kind of hoping they show the spear fishing tomorrow.

Ha, we laugh in the face of people who think watching karate or wushu or table tennis or modern pentathlon or something is obscure.
