I suggest that we take an unscientific vote on this matter, then table the topic until there is some more definitive news, which may never come, but then again might.
The wisdom of crowds suggests that our completely biased and boneheaded attitudes and beliefs--contradictory as the stew of opinions here is--might well cancel each other out in such a way as to provide a valid collective answer.
Then we can come back in a year, decade, or whenever, and some can yell, "I told you so!" from their respective berths in the nursing home, before, that is, speedily reattaching the oxygen mask and HGH drip.

LOL. I also like the idea of coming back in twenty or thirty years from our nursing home beds with a declaration of "I told you so!"

geochuck: "Did you see that on the TV? See, I told you she was clean. They tested her blood samples using that new Robo-Nuke-6000-Electron-Imager. I told you so! I told you so!"
aquageek: "He's just in a good mood because he broke all of those 160+ age group records last week."
scyfreestyler: "Isn't it funny, back then we thought 41 was old. We sure had to eat crow when SwimStud broke Phelps's 200 Fly WR at age 60."
SwimStud: "Yes, the ladies flocked to me after that one."
Fortress: "That's nothing. I could have whipped him if I hadn't broken my toe for the 74th time."
TheGoodSmith: "The Robo-Nuke-6000-Electron-Imager still doesn't prove that she's clean. Those BALCO guys anticipated its invention and worked around it."
geochuck: "The Mexicans don't believe in the Robo-Nuke-6000-Electron-Imager. They're the ones who proved the value of two margaritas before a race."
ande: "I just got an e-mail about that new Speedo suit, the Titanium Corset. Not too pricey at $3,400.00."
Fortress: "My great-great-great-grandkids are swimming against summer league swimmers whose parents bought them the Titanium Corset."
(Clock chimes in background)
scyfreestyler: "Well, you know what time it is..."
SwimStud: "It's noodle time! Let's hit the pool!"
