It sounds like this sport is going the way of techdiver and the cavers list. Too many egos to try and contain in one room- and that's before they start packing.

I have seen Eric in the water and have no doubt in my mind that he broke the record.
I am also a little leary of FREE's allowing records to stand that included sambas. I know that AIDA was pretty specific about their divers coming up "clean". I think that is important for the future of the sport.
I also like the idea of drug testing. Not that it can always be accurate with freedivers (especially with elevated hematocrit levels) but, it looks good on paper.

Just my $.02
