I don't know how the rest of you feel, but one ridecamper complaining
about another ridecamper in a way that many would recognize who the
latter is (a "raffle" horse in Southern CA) on a public forum does not
feel kosher to me. For one thing, most of us do not know the parties
involved and cannot judge who is partly/totally/or not-at-all truthful
about this matter.
Can we take this off ridecamp now before anyone gets hurt or writes
anything they may regret later if the truth be known?
It's a lovely day to go riding :-)
