Is there really a division between masters swimmers? i.e. one camp allied to a more low key fitness oriented approach with low membership growth vs. a meet oriented competitive (elite) camp?
This sounds ridiculous to me. I don't think I've ever run into anyone that acknowledged this debate on a pool deck.
What spawns this rift in Masters swimming? Is this an old guard vs. younger member phenonmenon?
Are there different motivations that exist that create this conflict in terms of the future of USMS? Why can't both coexist?
I say we poll some people out there and find out what they support.

Steve,
Dude..... if anyone has mastered the art of dragging and cheating to go fast with minimal effort it's me.
I guarantee you that if you move over next to someone that is half a body length ahead of you, you WILL catch a draft.
As Martha would say....."It's good thing"..... and the bigger the monster in the other lane the better the wave.
Hawaii Five-O dude ! Never waste a good drag.... so move over.
