Re: [RC] Tevis - k s swigartGary Daniels said: Of course I'm being sarcastic. It seems like you know the ins and outs about everything and aren't very kind when voicing your opinion. Ummmm.....isn't this a little bit like the pot calling the kettle black? I have never heard of anybody suggesting that being sarcastic is a very kind way to voice an opinion, yet your first statement is to admit to having done so. I will wait to hear (or not hear) from the lady who was asking for trail riding help to determine if she thought I was telling her that she didn't know her butt from a hole in the ground, because, most definitely, that was not my intention and I am sorry if some people took it that way. I THOUGHT that I was being constructive in addressing some of the issues she was encountering with the evidence she had of overuse of her horse by suggesting some other things that she might try instead of just telling her, "you are over using your horse." I will concede that I am not always the most able of communicators and may not always succeed in adequately conveying my point. And, I suspect, that sometimes I have conveyed my point adequately but still cause offense because I tell people things that they don't want to hear, but I am willing to do that....if they have asked. However, I also confess to being uncharitable enough towards you at this time to publicly point out that at least I had the decency to ask you privately if I was understanding you correctly rather than responding to your private post publicly while having jumped to conclusions...which is what you did :).
