London 2012 was such a joyous landmark event in Olympic history and wonderfully
uncluttered by sponsors logos.

Unfortunately this is not so of the Paralympics 2012, I have already spotted sponsor
logos at the venues. And having 'PANASONIC' in big labels at the velodrome track is a huge
distraction from the super-achieving athletes.

PANASONIC's achievements simply DO NOT compare to those of the Para-Olympians.

There website is keen to expound what they have delivered by way of technology to the games,
including *12,000 TV sets!! Shock (No wonder GT50 models are in short supply! rolling on the floor laughing )
Money and marketing simply do not compare to human endeavour.

 

 

(*Astounding that I couldn't get a TV exchange out of them : such awful software errors on
my Z1 TV Tongue Left disatisfied and angry after 18months - customer service at its best! good job)

Do you honestly think anyone's suggesting they do?

The games wouldn't happen without sponsorship, don't be stupid.
