Anyone else find it a bit odd that the cover of the May/June issue shows "swimmers" wearing flotation vests?

My goodness, I think you've gone off the deep end without your water belt. I don't think any of us have said we are better than anyone else or deserve more praise. What we've said is that we are swimmers and want articles about swimming, not noodling, especially cover stories. How you have managed to morph this into some commentary that we think we live more praiseworthy lives and don't respect others is beyond me. I want a magazine about swimming, with featue stories about swimming. Would you buy a Newsweek or be more likely to subscribe if it's cover story was about home decorating tips? Would you be more or less likely to join a national triathlon association if their primary magazine had it's feature article on how jumping rope makes you a better triathlete. It's about the core, man, not the fringe group.
