I do several stretches pointed out as no-nos in that article. I have a little routine that I always do, much of which I borrowed from Janet Evans' book. But after reading that I'm thinking I might just quit stretching altogether.

Here is another link to a more complete article on USA Swimming's web page, www.usaswimming.org/.../Active Warm Up 040809.pdf , much the same as in this month's Swimmer magazine - but with references.
I use the "On Deck Active Warm-Up" stretches and movements before every competition.
