IThe forums have been a bit drab since our friend was kicked off. We need to spice things up. Here are some possible topics:
What should US swimming do more to promote the sport?
Should the qualifying times for nationals (masters) be lowered to make the meet smaller and more conducive to fast swimming?
400 IM - the true measure of swimming ability?
Has Bush exaggerated the threat of terrorism so that he can push his social agenda in the name of national security?
My answers: Yes, Yes, Yes, and Yes

I would like to add that post-9/11 there were also lots of discussions that although they had little to do with swimming, the members of this forum used it as one of the links to hold on to in that strange period of U.S. history. Although this is a forum often dedicated to swimming topis, I've always thought of it as a forum "of swimmers" and we are part of it because we have a lot in common as swimmers. However, we also like to talk occassionally about other topics in this forum. That's my 2 cents.....
As to ION, please come back! You help to make this forum from being boring. :D
