Justin Freeman posted a piece on his blog responding to Dick Taylor's recent FasterSkier article “The Fishy thing About Skating.” Justin disagrees with Dick's main assertions, and asks some questions. He encourages people to comment on his blog to discuss the matter.
Dick's article has received a number of interesting comments over the last week and he has written a response – also in the comment section of that article.

Important Note on Blog Comments
Commenting on a blog entry like Justin's is a bit different than commenting on a FasterSkier article.
If you would like to leave a comment on a blog, scroll to the bottom of the entry to a section titled “Leave a Reply.” Underneath it will say “You must be logged in to post a comment.” You can click the “logged in” link to bring up the login screen.
If you had a FasterSkier account prior to October 2007, you should be able to use it to log in. If you created a FasterSkier account after October 2007, do not have an account, or are experiencing problems logging into the blog section, you will need to create a new FasterSkier blog account.
Due to some technical issues, you cannot create an account from Justin's blog. Here is what you have to do:

2. Click “Login” at the bottom of the left navigation.
3. This will open the blog login screen. Just below the login box is the “Register” link. Click it.
