I stand corrected, O gracious lady, for your knowledge of equine intellect
and behavior so far outstrips mine as the ocean is to a tiny drop of
water...
That is - the sum total of my very non-encyclopedic knowledge of horses is
"GO faster!!! I bet 5 dollars on you!"
Or "Hmmm... *THAT* doesn't taste like beef - OR chicken!... Must be horse!"
Oh yeah, by the way - "Okie Grammar" is the mother of ones own mother or
father, who was born or currently resides in Oklahoma...

Piotr,
Some horses are more sophisticated than that ;-) If my horse heard "Hyear
Now", he would immediately come to a screeching halt, and begin looking for
dinner :-) I have accidentally used the above words during a ride, and
speak from
experience. In order to go faster on such a beast, one must utter "hup Hup
HUP", followed by a low rumbling growl. On occasion, when chasing dogs, one
must use the oft neglected "Git 'Em", which will product a sonic event with
my
horse!
