Please clarify.  What does "no touchy-feelies" mean?  Seriously, is this
a figure of speech or do you imply here that touch is an undesirable
interpersonal communication tool or training tool in your specific area
for some reason?  

BTW, thank you...  The information that you (and others) share on
Ridecamp not only educates me, but it also serves to remind me almost
daily of how little I really know about horses.  Seems like the older I
get and the more I learn, the stupider I feel about anything I used to
(blissfully) think I knew pretty much about.  

Ever feel that way?
