The tents work. Most people report a 8-10% in hematocrit levels when using tents. At one point the Postal Service team talked about turning their team bus into an altitude chamber so every guy on the team could benefit from altitude effects. The tents are expensive so not every guy on the team can afford one.

good thread. i'm not halfway through it yet, but this reminded me that there's a good article in this month's "WIRED" about nike trying to create an american marathon champ and putting a group of guys in a house which simulates high altitude. a good read.
