where are Nationals in 2009?

I'm sorry, if you can't fly direct from one of the largest airports in the country, it is not a real airport. And it's hours' drive from any plausible choices. (I grew up in Calif.--I am familiar with Fresno.) But there's turboprop service from LA! Yay! Flights to Mejico or Canada and back shouldn't really make an airport "international" in the scope of JFK, LAX, or what not. It's a bit like Geek claiming he's a Triathlete... :duel: As for the National meets: Everyone know all the normal folks live on the eastern, non-wildfire/landslide/quake, sensible altitude (dig at colorado), original colonies portion of the country. The bulk of these meets should be on the East and much further north toboot! :2cents: Any breaststrokers are excluded from my analysis because they're much tougher and hardier than other swimmers, so they mentally prepare themselves for races by living in the danger zones! :thhbbb: Serious note...West Coast is a long haul for me...not that I have NQT's anyhow. Indy is a possibility though.
