Just returned from the DAM scm meet in Dallas. The format was slightly different this year, with all events on one day, but the pool conditions were the same. Tapered and shaved and wore Aquablade jammers instead of a full body B70. My training had been solid, and I'd had no recent illnesses.
What I found was a 2 second difference per 100 in the 400. Granted this was the last event (at 11:30 am), and I had already swum the 1500 four hours earlier (which was by the way slower than my 1650 in February also wearing a B70). I plan to retaper for zones in two weeks and swim another 400 (first event of the day). Perhaps I will be able to shave a bit of time off (no pun intended).
Train harder? Train smarter? No--I believe the difference in suits is very real.

OK. I'll bite.
It's clear you don't like ElaineK. I don't blame you. I don't like her blue/bold font and abundant use of smilies either. For this reason I have her on ignore. Having said that, I don't doubt for a moment that she is a wonderful person, that I would be happy to know her in the real world, and that if she reverted to the standard black font and reduced her use of smilies I would take her off of ignore without hesitation.
Being this rude to her is just beyond the pale. She obviously will not change her ways for you, so why continue to be so mean? Unless (and probably even if) she wronged you personally, there is no reason for your attacks to be so personal and cruel.
Just put her on ignore. It can be highly effective. She clearly doesn't say anything constructive in your mind.
In fact, if it weren't for you quoting her, I would never see any of her posts. As far as I'm concerned, you are perpetuating your perceived issues with her by repeating them in your posts.
Of course, this could all be good natured ribbing between willing and consenting participants. If that's the case, allow me to slink away quietly....
