		The only disadvantage Anchorage has is that it is too close to Vancouver which is hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics.
		The cities I predict that will put forth bids for the 2018 Winter Olympics are the running up cities for the 2014 Winter Olympics, Denver, Salt Lake City, and I would be surprise if a city in South America puts forth a bid.
