    I definitely understand the woman swimming getting upset with the other 2 who were walking/exercising for the collision, but sometimes people (swimmers or not) don't necessarily know the etiquette & just need it explained to them. Repeated offenses definitely require a stronger response, but explaining it the first time instead of yelling & cursing is probably much more effective in making the actual point.....

    Absolutely! It can be frustrating to be "in the zone" and be interrupted by running into someone. And sometimes newbies don't always know the rules of a particular pool.
