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.

geochuck: "Where are we going, again?"
ande: "To The Fortress's funeral. She forgot that she can't run 20 miles a day any more, and fell in front of a car."
geochuck: "But why is it so far away?"
aquageek: "Because she's being buried in Lane 10 of the BU pool."
SwimStud: "The wall lane. She really grew to like that lane over the years, especially after she became a distance swimmer."
JMiller: "Hey, is that THE Rob Copeland over there? The former President of USMS?"
Jim Thornton: "No, that's one of the members of the 1992 Chinese women's swim team. See? She has more body hair than Rob does."
tomtopo: "Just type 'EVF + BU Pool' into Google. It will show you the most efficient way to get to the pool."
ande: "I thought that KaizenSwimmer disproved that whole EVF theory 30 years ago."
SwimStud: "It's aqua-noodle time. I'm not missing it just for a funeral."
