Regarding the opening ceremony, when did lip synching enter the realm of absolute class, grace, and beauty? 
I would have preferred lip synching to that painful rendition of "whole lotta love".horrible.

The fireworks shown on TV were not live.  They were pre-recorded and played on television to appear as if they were in time with the opening ceremonies.  But, at the actual stadium, there weren't fireworks.

Interesting ... I did not know that.  That kind of changes things as I was pretty impressed!

Yeah, not that I really give a crap, but here's the link: http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/08/12/fake.fireworks.ap/

I think that replacing the young singer with a lip-syncer that's  better looking is pretty foul, though.

The true singer was a cute kid too! She had a (gasp!) gap in her teeth
