I don't favor shortening the time, either--the important thing is to have an
idea that a horse DID take longer to come down, and to take that into
account in the whole "big picture" when you make decisions about whether or
not he should go back out on the trail.  I do think that we need a cut-off
time--but 30 minutes gives ample opportunity, and gives an end-point as
well.  The significance of what happens within that 30 minutes is something
for the ride vets to take into account.
