[RC] What the Abstracts Say...and Don't Say - katswig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxJonni said: It is too bad that any questions you raised, were not answered directly by Tom, with his OPINION, but instead you were given more "abstracts" to read. Actually, since one of the other things I said in my post that the most valuable information Tom can provide is a bibliography and that he can't be counted on to reliably report what the studies actually say, telling me where to go for more information is exactly what I asked for, and was quite happy to get. I haven't read them yet (I haven't even tried to find them yet) because...well...I'm kinda busy (it took me almost two weeks to get around to looking at the last lot), but rest assured, before I start feeding large quantities of beet pulp to my foals (I don't have any right now) or trying to stuff it down my endurance horse's throat during competition that I will....or I might ask Susan if she has read them, since I DO have faith in her ability to not read into texts things that aren't there. Incidentally, not reading things in to texts that aren't there is quite difficult. I have been guilty of it myself on occasion, and it is a common cause of misunderstanding, flaming, etc. on all internet groups. This is the other reason I took the time to write my first post, and is why I sent my last response to Tom's comment about railing against nasty posts. It wasn't to be nasty to Tom, but rather to warn everybody to be careful not to read into texts, things that aren't there and were never meant to be there by the author. kat Orange County, Calif. -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
