One Hour Postal

Good one, qbrain. My point--in case it wasn't clear--is what rules are valid? Since the event starts on January 1st does that mean whatever suit rules are in place then (presumably the current ones which allow body suits) are valid for the entire one month duration of the event? It would seem that they will have to let the current rules stay in place for the duration of the event. If a new ruling comes out in mid-jan, it wouldn't be right to make the people doing the event in the latter half have to swim under different rules than the ones that did it at the start. So, let current suit rules apply for the enitre month for this event or state before Jan. 1 that 2010 FINA suit rules apply to the event.
