I am looking for a list of Olympian Masters and what Olympics and events they particpated in. If you have such a list or know where one is, please let me know. Individual anecdotes are OK too.
Background:
I want to write to "Splash" magazine and ask them to feature some of the people on such a list when they write about great swimmers. I'm tired of reading (and having my kids read) about so-and-so great swimmer, who got to the Olympics, did great, and now swimming is behind them (i.e. they don't swim anymore). On the "mission statement" of Splash, they give lip service to a lifelong involvement with swimming, but they never seem to come up with an example of such a person.

No. You are simply mistaken. I have the original text right here in front of me.
Then PM me with it please and I'll see if it's what I distinctly recall reading, and I am not suffering from any memory loss whatsoever. As I recall, it was an ugly public takedown. My main point was, and is, that she was jumped on prior to having any chance to defend herself and without people even knowing what her name was, as it had changed. As mine will be changing soon.
You have to admit, Gail shouldn't have posted it.
