Are Triathletes worth the dues they pay toward Masters Swimming?
I say we force all Triathletes to spend one day a week in the sprint lane, one day a week doing stroke (i.e. IM) work, and then make them focus on their starts and turns.
This invasion needs to be controlled.... :-)

Geek - amen on the costing there! These are expensive habits we have.
I did have the beauty of beating a friend of like athletic ability in the bike portion of a triathlon a few years back. He had just bought a new road bike... And I was on my mountain bike. He was pretty peeved about that. Despite the victory, I went out and bought a new road bike for myself a month later.
Or better- hockey - all my equipment was $700+ just to try it out... sure, I am having a good time injuring myself. but yeah, nothing like swimming!
