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?

    Now this has real potential. A swimmer could study to find the foods that produce the most noxious gas - jerusalem artichokes and chilli beans washed down with WARM real ale would make a good combo. Then a well timed FART just before the start could cause other competitors to fall of the blocks, just like Ian Thorpe ! Thus giving one a huge advantage. To dispose of the rest, you would have to go out really fast to gain a lead and then FART into the water to snuff out the few swimmers that are left.:D I think i must try this at my next meet. I looked in my Fina rule book and there is no rule against this.;)
