What is there to
debate? The Kanavy's have a cloned endurance horse on the ground! This is
nothing new, except for the press release.

I would hate to be the one to ruin a "free for all" on ridecamp. I
take back the suggestion of "wait and see". To keep this a free
for all and endurance related....why not talk about what criteria would have
to be present to clone one of our endurance horses....Better yet, let's
actually discuss which endurance horses we would want cloned. I say only
horses that Top Ten 90% of their rides and have at least one
win. No LD horses included. Let's only do the
pretty horses with nice heads and cute ears that meet this
performance requirement because if they don't work out as performance horses
at least they will be nice to look out in the pasture. Bet we
could see some chest thumping with that suggestion. OK, let's think of the
positives. At least endurance horses don't have to be
registered. Just think what you could do with a barn full of the right
cloned horses. Instead of selling one overseas for the big bucks you
could have an entire cookie cutter operation to sell horses. Better yet,
I think we should take a bunch of cloned horses from the same horse and pass
them out to some of our most well know riders and trainers and then have a big
race 7 or 8 years down the road to see which trainer/rider made the most out
of their "cloned" horse. Everybody basically starts with the same horse
and we could see who took "their" clone to it's highest potential....
OK Diane... how is this for a contribution to
the free for all. I think I have included it all....fluff, irrational
ideas, enough issues to get a good chest thumping, emotional debate going for
the weekend :)

Oh hiss, boo Kim! Here we
had the makings of a really good anti-TI free-for-all, complete with fluff
bunnyisms, irrational rhetoric, chest thumping appeals to emotion and
prejudice and YOU GO AND RUIN IT ALL with a logical suggestion to take a wait
and see attitude.
