Re: RC: Discrete Inquiry

Sandy,
There are different types of dedication.  I consider myself a horsewoman, and
dedicated to my horse's welfare.  I'm an intelligent person who wants to learn
and am fairly proficient at my sport.  But he's looking for a very specific type,
and I for one would be the first to admit I'm not it.  No shame in that, just a
different focus.  Oh, I fit some of the criteria, like I haven't had a horse get
away from me for ages (of course, I've ridden very few but my gelding for a while
either).  So I didn't take it as an offense, just a declaration of a having a
very specific goal in mind.
