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

Kirk,yes it is. It is the original anabolic steroid. Since it is naturally occuring it can be harder to check as you can only go by quatitative analyses. Perhaps only one test was high because the others were borderline and this day he was a little more dehydrated and his blood and urine more concentrated.Or maybe it's lab error and he'll be exonerated.
Excellent point. Dehydration can alter the results of the test. bikers don't usually drink enough. Many have very weird issues with their weight & self-body image. Some guys I've known I woud consider anarexic(sp). One thing about testosterone is that hard work will increase the amount produced by the body. I think it is one of the built-in survval mechanisms we humans have. I still, though, would wonder why his levels were high. Even if he were dehydrated the level woudl be ablut 3:1.
