Some of us referred to him as "Speedy"...

The ISU obituary for Mr. Cinquanta: https://www.isu.org/isu-news/news/145-n ... teParam=15

Probably the only ISU President I will ever be able to say that I booed at a live event.

Well, I don't want to say anything bad about the dead. So it's purely coincidental that I may visit my favourite restaurant and have a very good meal later today.

Oh that's too bad, but I don't think he was a favourite of very many skating fans. He was a controversial figure no doubt.

It was very good. It's a great dish they serve with slivered carrots and beets with other things in separate sections of the dish, more or less and a lemon-tahini dressing that is nicely acidic and goes so well with the optional tofu rectangles which are floured and seasoned with salt before frying. It's sensational and healthy too.
