This
is a very good question for the AERC President. That position is the spokes
person for the Conference and he alone carries the authority for the
dissemination of such information.
The
AERC has a very high powered media committee and they would be the ones to push
such an agenda. Perhaps a note to the President would be the
motivator.

A question that's been bothering me: If "we,"
the AERC are so against this trend toward flat track racing in international
endurance and if "we" don't want to be associated with that style, why aren't
we talking about it in public? In magazines like Equus or even in AHA
magazines? All I see are people talking about selecting their
international horses and bragging about USA riders "competing." It would
be refreshing to see someone with authority say that we don't support the
moves international is making and we don't want people to think that is what
we do, etc. It's just like with all the 'BS' tributes and stories about
Barbaro and everything they learned, etc., NO ONE has the guts to say that
maybe if we weren't racing babies (2 and 3 year olds) this wouldn't be such a
big problem. It's like we're not willing to publically state the obvious
things.
