As quoted in the AP article: "You'll all have to see. I'm not saying anything until we unveil it," Phelps said with a grin when asked how he's tweaked the stroke. "It's a significant change. You'll be able to tell exactly what I did as soon as I take my first stroke." He's on tap to swim the 100- and 200-meter free and the 100 butterfly at the Charlotte UltraSwim in NC. Should be interesting to see.

    Phelps hasn't done very much really short distance stuff, has he? It always seems like he's in 200 or 400 stuff (of course, there's the 50 or 100 in the relays he does). And the 100 fly he likes. I guess he wants to dominate a completely new area of the sport. It'll be fun watching him. :)
