What should USMS do about the suits?

I think that the FINA masters committee should be even more ashamed of itself than FINA proper. Why are they waiting until Jan to hold their meeting? (I can answer that, but not without profanity.) They should get their :censor: selves together and meet no later than Dec so whatever they decide (assuming they decide anything) can take effect 1/1/10 when the "elite" rules do. My understanding is that it is the FINA bureau that is scheduled to meet in January at which time they will review the recommendations of the Masters Technical Committee. But how many were discouraged by how the suits helped people who never beat them before suddenly kick their tails? How many indeed. And sadly, it is rumored that these same heartbroken swimmers were turned away when they attempted to purchase one of these suits for themselves.
