In this week's People magazine (not my copy, of course) Mark Spitz is quoted as saying: "Eighty percent of Masters do compete. I'm in the 20 percent who don't. Been there. Done that."

    Spitz has been to dozens of SPMA masters swim meets, usually at UCLA. He is very nice in that environment, I don't recall people pestering him. Tom, Even as an officer, don't you have to salute the Medal of Honor winner? My one regret was just missing a talk with Joe Foss. Every Marine knows of him.
