It was kind of fitting to hit the adjacent key just there,
isn´t it? And it probably was an apt punishment for my lack
of empathy:-)


Bajcicak wore bib number 37; the even numbered ski change
slots run in one file and the uneven in another, like this:

30 32 34 36 38 40 42 44 46
29 31 33 35 37 39 41 43 45

so he got the file wrong. IMHO this is the kind of error
that is bound to happen every once in a while, just like
orienteers picking up the wrong map or biathletes shooting
at the wrong target.


BTW Bajcicak doesn´t appear to have fared too bad with 
Imai´s skis: he finished 19th. His DQ meant that the best
Finn climbed up one position, giving Sami Repo one (1)
World Cup point. 

*This* was pure comedy...
