  Subject: [RC] subject matter on Ride 
  Camp
  
  While I am a proponent of using the delete key if not 
  interested in  a topic rather than complaining, I have become acutely 
  aware of the low incidence of actual endurance related, or horse care and 
  training related items on Ride Camp.
  I did a quick survey of the deleted (and unread) items and 
  out of the last 100, 36 had to do with "Actors who can ride". 
  
  Except for the welcome contributions of our wonderful Susan 
  G, I was able to find only six items directly related to Horse care or 
  endurance.
  I find myself deleting whole blocks of items and I wonder if 
  this is only because so many are snowbound and in desperate need of 
  distraction....any distraction. Am I mistaken in remembering that only a 
  couple of years ago, Ride Camp was full of interesting items and discussions? 
  Perhaps it has come full circle and it is I who am in need of a different kind 
  of distraction. Help me here, folks.....is it me? I hardly look forward to 
  opening my e-mail in anticipation of finding fun and interesting 
  discussion.
  I know, I know, my delete key functions just fine. Just 
  thought I would share.....
