why doesn't masters apply the same age rule for short course as it does for long course?
In long course meets a persons age is determined by their age by the end of the year.
so at worlds there were 24, 29 , 34, 39, 44, ... year olds
who competed in the next age group up because they aged up later in the year.
In short course competitions a persons age is determined by their age at either the end or beginning of the competition.
I encourage USMS to be consistent and
consider adopting the same rules for short course competitions

Oh say, can you see...Jim, it may be florid, but of course my opinion agrees with Ande's, namely, that the dates should agree. However, I cannot now be referred to as the Bookman; the proper term now is the Unemployed Man .
