Great race.

On a related note, I've heard some say how if Phelps wins at least 6 golds he has to be considered the best olympian ever as he would have the most gold medals. But shouldn't how similar the events are and popularity/number of worldwide contestants (how many care about swimming except every 4 years) be considered?

This whole business of different strokes seems bogus to me. It would be like having 4 different races for the 100 meters run each with a restriction on mechanics of runnning. It seems ridiculous for running doesn't it?
