Anybody here ever competed in fencing?

    Covered fencing at the Olympics and years later wrote a newspaper feature on a local kid hot shot. It's quite an interesting sport that requires extremely quick reactions.

    I know the modern suits fencers wear are really high-tech and stuff, but there's just something about having someone lunge at me with a sword from close range that unnerves me a little.

    Good luck, Rusty, with the endeavor and please let us know how you enjoy it.
