[RC] Cold Mountain Lameness Remedy - goearth

Howard, i mentioned that i was going to read Cold Mountain and i did and enjoyed it a lot.    In it there is the strangest recipe for lameness i ever heard that some Gypsies did.."A woman snubbed a big bay up to a birch trunk and then twitched it and poured lamp oil on the frog of its hoof and lit fire to it to curb a tendency to lameness."  Thats a new one to me and i just wonder what AERC or the Vets would think of that? tom sites
