Re: [Article] Martin Stepanek: It's Not About Me

Sorry, Glenn, but I still do not agree and consider the request to increase the minimal measuring unit for ridiculous, for a unnecessary protectionism, and quite counterproductive. If you are a record holder and your record gets broken by someone else who did it in better conditions (other salinity, temperature, altitude, etc, ...) and you think he got it easier than you, all you need to do is optimizing your own conditions (selecting a place with the best ones) and taking the record back. The different conditions are no argument. That's in the same way in other sports too, though in some cases some extreme conditions may invalidate a record (i.e. wind in athletics sprints).
