Why are there more men than woman in masters swimming? Everyone says that women's events always end before the men's events (and thus we have to keep that odd/even rule for pools at nationals). Is this still true? The last meet I attended there were 62 heats of women and 65 of men.
PM not a good way to handle anything. I have received a few that I just junk, when I see who they came from. PM to me should only be used to pass on info, not crude remarks.
But I also do not like to see personal attack posts. If a person thinks they can get away with personal attacks I would just copy the PM and put it in a post.
I just received this personal attack in a PM it tells me how many days I have left.... I am going to expose the message sent to me.

George:
The reason I believe the PM is the most effective way to settle disputes and differences is because its between two people and not the whole membership of the USMS forum or all of the people of the world wide net that happen to be visiting here. Plus in my experiences with disputes and differences with other members here its worked for the best for both parties. Plus if we can't be civil and settle the our differences, our ugly nastiness can be constrained to ourselves and not be thrown upon the members here who really do not want to be an audience to this. If this happens without the PM, ugly nastiness will begin to build and trouble will happen and we all don't want that.
By the way George, I wish you a Merry Christmass. I say that not as an attack but as a warm greeting.
