Teddy says: <<The USA needs to make use of modern technology, and we aren't. History tells us, as a nation, we fall short when it comes to being innovative or even WILLING to listen. Horse Racing in the USA is a joke compared to Sweden and Japan (to name a few). Endurance is getting to be the same way.>> Teddy - as a retailer, can you tell us were the following products were invented? I bet it's all American! Easyboots Heart rate monitors for horses Endurance saddlery (e.g. Orthoflex) Paste electrolytes for horses Biothane Tack Neoprene Tack Is the UAE funding research like the Pride Project and Gayle Eckers studies? This is a lot different from funding Tom Ivers. Without this empirical data, Tom Ivers wouldn't be able to do what he does. In the business world, USA are innovators. Japan just takes the innovations and perfects it, but they are not innovators. This is well documented. (And I am of Japanese ancestry, but alas, American in mindform.) Where was the first acknowledged endurance competition? The only thing that the UAE has over us is the money. They can buy expertise and our horses, but don't forget that it's OUR expertise and OUR horses they are buying. Kinda wierd, isn't it? American Arabian horse going back to the Middle East where they were originally derived from. They are also buying Arabians from Australia, huh? Kathy
