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.

You post someone else's work and then claim to be the expert on the topic, and not even the topic you post about. That's rich, or plaigarism, take your pick.
Hey Aquageek
Your argument that I don’t have to actually do some common place thing (like being a parent) to be an “expert” is frivolous and claiming that my use of links to support my argument is somehow “Plagiarism” is mediocre and a pretty cheap shot.
Why do I have to actually be a parent to be an “expert” on the issue of how other people's children are failing in academics? Anyone who has been in charge of hiring technical personnel (as I do in the course of managing an elevator service company) is quite familiar with the lack of competency of workers produced by the American school system and the links I posted are just to support my personal (and everyone else’s) observations.
Furthermore, I actually do work part time as a tutor in high school (and the first two years of college) math, science, and English composition and I can tell you that there is a serious problem with the capabilities of most American students.
There must be some kind of “Primordial” thinking going on (“Survival Of The Physically Fittest”) left over from the cavemen days, but parents seem to place more importance on their children making an athletic accomplishment than academic achievement.
