<< Therefore I was shocked and upset to learn that Susan Evans and, for
all I know, Tom Ivers, apparently is being dumped on in private. >>
So far, I'm dump-free. But that won't last long. I'm actually a cantankerous
old coot.
Still, this is fun. I wish we could have these kinds of discussions in
horseracing lists.
A warning: Susan is entirely right in that none of us knows the scientific
Truth about anything. There's just too much to know and a lot of what is
known has never been published in either journals or the lay press. That's
why each person's experience carries a lot of weight--in the end, it is the
coach and the athlete that innovate--science stumbles along behind, cleaning
up the messes made by shattered theories.
