[quote]UP TO 300 test results taken from athletes at the Beijing Olympics have gone missing, says a report by official drug testing observers who attended the Games.
I wonder if they were Chinese athlete's samples?

Thanks for that Bernard, good to know that unlike so many others caught cheating you weren't held down and injected forcibly with CERA against your will. Thats OK then

Blimey, where do you drag these up from [color=#0000FF]"The Canadian Press" - a leading light in the cycling press world forever holding a torch against doping [/color]
That aside if this article is indeed true I think that there is a lot of sense in what is being said:
[quote]"If we're going to start rejigging the podium of every major international race over the past two or three years, by finding new tests for new products, and going back to the organizer and saying 'you've got to rejig your podium' .. it makes a complete mockery of sport,"

If we keep on hacking away at it we will completely destroy the sport now and its chances in the future of being anything credible - lets look to the future not the past!
[quote]"From the UCI's point of view, we prefer to look forward rather than look backward," McQuaid said in an interview with The Associated Press. "To randomly say 'OK, let's take all the samples from 2007 from the Tour de France and put them all through testing processes' ... it's futile, it's expensive and it's not going to serve the purpose in the anti-doping fight of today."
Hear hear!
It is like somebody smoking cannabis at college, then they get a good job after they leave college, stay in that job a couple of years and work their way up the ladder, get a decent salary but then the firm implements a new drug free policy i.e. if you took drugs, ever, your employment was terminated. They then speak to some of your friends at college who let slip that you did use drugs, end of your career (even end of getting another one).
or
A young person makes a mistake in his life and gets done for stealing a car (mistake for stealing and not for being caught) and goes away for 6 months, then for the rest of his life anybody can then background search that person and that will come up effectivily ruining their chances of a future - of course that does not happen as it is clearly unproductive to society in ruining that persons life forever for a mistake they made in the past (I think that they are deemed spent after 3 years).
Let it lie - look to the future.
