"With regard to LA, we have the full support of the president of the United States and the governor of California and the mayor of Los Angeles for the success of these Olympic Games," Bach told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

For folks at home, however, claims of lower inflation seem, in the words of H G Wells, as absurd as saying solid earth was liquid.
