I see Frank Carroll quite often, and believe me, it doesn't look a thing like him.

Re: Linda Fratianne visits World Figure Skating Museum

Just wanted to add that I have always considered Linda Fratianne to be a class act - a real sportswoman who represented the United States with honor, style, and class during her competitive days. Linda always arrived at various competitions well-trained and ready to skate. She was one of the few American women who landed multiple triples - a triple toe and a triple salchow - in her era of the mid-late 1970s. She was also one of the first skaters to adorn her skating dresses with lots of sequins, and her costumes often had a "petal skirt", something that was not seen much previous to her day.
