Can you post a link to the chart? Is that the only example you have?

In a matter of minutes, I found two references to VFR charts published for
the Salt Lake City Olympic Games held in 2002:

I didn't waste my time looking for references to the Atlanta charts that
were similarly published, but they are out there if you ever decide to see
for yourself.

Do you still maintain that TFRs being published implies that there is no
plan to eliminate them?

Of course.

This doesn't qualify as undisputable truth, but it does have some
bearing on the subject. Some months ago, I attended an FAA sponsored
seminar at Willow Grove Joint Reserve Base. The speaker was a
high-ranking NACO official who was directly in charge of the charting
efforts as well as the A/FD publication. I'm sorry, I do not recall
his name. He discussed, in some length, the charting of the
Washington ADIZ and specifically noted that the fact that it was
charted did not in any way imply permanence. He did note, however,
that they probably would not have charted it if they anticipated a
change in the near future. The primary purpose for the charting was
to help pilots avoid the ADIZ.

Personally, I don't know - but I think they should quit pussyfooting
around and either get rid of the TFRs or change them to
restricted/prohibited areas.

I disagree. as long as they remain temporary, they can easily (and quietly) be
removed. Some wounds take time to heal. 911 was a big wound to the country,
and authorities have to show they are doing something - even if it's
sometimes more show than substance. If the TFR's can be removed in time, so
much the better. I don't really know what "freedom" we will have gained by
being able to fly over a nuclear power station, but the Presidential TFR
guessing game is tiresome, and the TFR's in general present a regulatory trap
for pilots - so it would be better if they could be lifted in time. So what if
it takes another three years - better than never, don't you agree?

The freedom to fly without having to find out where the danged things are. The
freedom to take pictures of them (and of things near them) without being shot
down. The freedom do to many things that most people are not interested in
doing, which is what true freedom is all about.
