What is everyone's take on the latest allegations against Armstrong?
OK, I know, not swimming related, sorry.

gull80 - you're probably right. But the Masters athlete is probably capable of obtaining whatever he wants - if he/she wanted to.
I agree the vast majority have little reason to do so other than ego. I do wonder if so many people our age (I'm 47) are willing to have cosmetic surgery for vanity's sake that wouldn't they also do other things to swim faster/younger?
I think drug testing Masters athletes would be an interesting exercise. I bet they'd find lots of Lipitor, diuretics, ibuprofen, etc..
I have hypertension and take a calcium channel blocker and ACE inhibitor; I also take Lipitor.
