Does anyone know when or precisely where the Masters World Championships will be in 2004? I understand that Italy won the bid, but I'm wondering when the meet will be held compared to the Indy and Georgia National meets that year. Thanks.

I think I can shed a little light on the QT's. It is not so much that the 04 QT's are fast; it is more a case of the 02 QT's were slow.
If you want to compare apples to apples, take a look at the 00 Munich QT's. ..
BTW, congratulations on making the cut! Excellent work, and always gratifying when you are close. If you want to impress your friends and neighbors, just tell them you qualified for Masters World Championships, and watch their eyes get big. Even though we know what that really means, it sure sounds like the Olympics to them.

Actually, that's what I thought, but wanted to make sure. My mother did think I was going to the Olympics this summer when I told her I wanted to swim in Italy. :D Actually now that I think about it it is my Olympics! I have worked hard, and now that I have paid will have to work harder to make sure I keep my times.
For anyone else, I have just gotten through, was able to do all the registration and pay by credit card with no problems. I will still have to send in my paperwork I guess, my proof of age and copy of USMS card.
