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

I think we all love pasta. Think about it.
Over the last 15 years there have been long intervals where I did not compete due to various real-life concerns, but still swam (mostly). Does that make me a fitness swimmer?
Our club has numerous socials in a year (where real beer is consumed) 'fitness' & 'competitive' swimmers attend & do not come to blows.
The original question of cover suitability is a totally legitimate question to be debated by bona fide USMS members, it is their magazine. It ill behooves outsiders (myself included) to use harsh labels to characterize members exercising that right, whether using satire or extensive backgrounding (Matt, did you write the Warren Commission Report?) to make their point.
As I have said in the past, I think we have a thriving little posting community here & value it greatly.
