The most substantial change, of course, is that suits would no longer be allowed to extend past the knee.
My personal opinion is this is sort of an arbitrary change. What really should be changed--if anything--is what types of materials are allowed and maybe testing protocol to approve a suit. I don't really think requiring suits to end at the knees would affect much.
I subscribe to the idea that people can "Learn from the mistakes of others" and I don't have to actually try anything to be an "expert" (as you sacastically use the word) to see that parents are making way too many mistakes raising their children. :bitching:
Especially those who have had children who fail out of school or worse wind up in jail, prison, or living on the streets.
Fortunately the entire rest of the world disagrees with you. Pretty much universally known that to be an expert in something means you do it, and do it a significant proficiency level, some might even say an expert level.
You don't swim AT ALL yet pass judgment on swimming matters. You don't have kids yet tell those of us who do we are failures.
I would prefer if you'd provide expert opinions on matters you are qualified to speak on and, thus, might give you more credit, or some credit anyway.
