The list was endless and stupid.  Some folks think education is the way.  I hear that out west they give newcomers a pamphlet called something like "the code of the west".  It explains what is expected behavior wise.
Education? With all the time, money and energy we spend on education, then why do stupid people still try to cross rail road tracks when the gates are down; why do people still put cups of hto coffee between their legs when they drive? Peeps are "educated" 6 ways to Sunday and still behave stupidly. As far as I am concerned, people who move into horsey communities either fit in or get out. We don't go move into a tennis commmunity and start building barns and bringing in pet goats. sigh!Education doesn't work - treating people who BEHAVE like 4 year olds AS 4 year olds - now that might work:)!
