The reason for this is that the AHRA (now AHA) does not accept horses with
known non-purebred ancestry from some South American countries.  WAHO (the
world organization) has been trying to force this down AHRA/AHA's throat
for several years, and the export problem is one of the results. 
Personally, I think AHRA/AHA has made the right stand, and I respect them
for it--I just wish that instead of trying to badger AHRA/AHA into
changing their stance, that those who are inconvenienced by this would
give WAHO a piece of their minds.

PS:  Liz, you know Michael Bowling--ask him sometime what his opinion is
of the veracity of Awhitehorse as an information source as well.
