I understand, some of us are taught things about horses, that this is the way it is done and that is it, we are just questioning the "norm". > > With horses, degrees / academia do not matter.

Sometimes I think about horses in terms of the "Tao of Pooh". Owl knew everything, but he knew so much he was always getting himself confused:) Pooh was simple, he did not think *too* much, and somehow things always turned out the right way in the end. It's sort of like that with horses, just clear your mind, and really *be* with them. Kim
