I've not done any analysis to see if left coasters & westerners were disproportionately under-represented on the Auburn psych sheets, but wondering if the SPMA/Southwest Zone meet (www.clubassistant.com/.../meet_information.cfm might garner a bigger turnout than Nationals?

First, you are wrong. This is not the 2nd SPMA championships scheduled 1 week after nationals. SCY Championships were May 13-15. Nationals were Apr 28-May 1. That is two weeks apart.
If you examine Appendix E in the rule book you will see that historically the LCM Nationals were in the middle to end of August.
It is only the past few years that they have been at the beginning of August. I guess that the needs of a few (swimmers who go to nationals) are far more important that the needs of many (those who compete locally).
What a pleasant post.
