I don't agree--I am delighted that she would share the admittedly 
preliminary one-rat info, couched with a whole lotta "ifs" for those 
who had reported weirdness with some beet pulp feeds.

I think that's quite an insult in your last line--especially after her 
years of service, unpaid at that, to endurance people on all aspects of 
nutrition.

She even gave a method for insuring that no sugars remain for feeding 
to a laminitic or Cushingoid horse--yet another public service.

you have to join a gym or buy frilly outfits to get some
fitness.  A decent set of shoes and a 15 minute dismount here and there
will help.
