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.

But for right now, I'm the gal in the second lane - too fast for the wall too slow for the middle - working on my technique.
I like it when we finally get back to what it's all about! Nice quote, well placed.
We're all in the same water. And as Archie Harris used to say,"Keep swimming, you're not out of deep water yet!"
