I started a similar poll before,but time has changed things and I thought since USMS is going to have to do something definitive so they should have some input from the forumites
I'm certain Midas agrees with this part. It isn't what he was alluding to, however.
Speedo, if I remember right ('cause it's been a long time now) was complaining about the polyurethane suits coming into vogue and they were standing there with their mostly "woven" suit, behind the blocks, trying to figure out how to slow down the competition. :violin:
Because of Speedo's attempts to control the rules, (to affect other suit makers), now look what we may get - nuttin honey.
I didn't want them controlling the rules to their sole benefit and I don't want them controlling the rules to the mutual benefit of swimsuit manufacturers when the committee representing the actual swimmers has definitively come down on the other side of the issue. What they may (and should) get is nuttin. What WE may (and should) get is what our representatives voted for--parity with the elites and age groupers on this particular issue.
