> From "A Good Horse Hath No Color, The Search for the Perfect Horse"
> by Nancy Marie Brown:

"Never touch the horse with your lower leg.  That's just asking for trouble, 
an Icelandic riding teacher had scolded me.  A lot of Icelandics are trained 
with no leg at all, explained an American who owns several.  An American 
rider gets on them in New York and ends up in Oklahoma."

"I found her description true... I had taken an hour's riding lesson.  I 
assumed the familiar two-point and squeezed.  The horse bolted.  The scenery 
tumbled inward... the instructor shouting, "Stop him!  Make him stop! 
Pull!"
