At the U.S. Trials there was one official in every lane looking at the turns, so now that we're in Athens, how does Kitajima get away with that dolphin kick on his turn? It seemed clear to me from the above water shot, then was confirmed with the underwater. Other breaststrokers care to weigh in?

These things happen in every sport; no umpire or referee is 100% perfect. I'm sure that they've realised their mistake - as long as they learn from this and try to do better next time - then that's fine.
