But that would likely be well more than one person smoking. Unless LK was hanging out with a large group of chain smokers, I can’t see it being an issue. Either that or I need better smoke detectors. But they always work beautifully if I’m roasting something, or someone burns their toast.
I have a family member who quit hard drugs, but can not kick cigarettes/vaping/nicotine.
Imagine the savings ($$) if they could?
That’s the farrier bill paid, right there.

A friend of mine has quit SMOKING (hurray!) and is still weaning using nicotine patches. I suggested keeping track of the amount spent (cigarettes vs patch) and think of the savings when no longer necessary.
I suppose it could be a group, but that is not the report(s) I hear.
There is also a problem at the local senior housing apartments with people smoking in their rooms and setting off the smoke detectors.
I am not trying to “derail your conversation”. It was Eggbutt who posted the Grande video yesterday and tagged me multiple times insisting I watch it.
Here, you have not replied to a post of mine, but have tagged me twice. A couple days ago, I signed on to see you had tagged me four or five times with questions (which I ignored).
It hardly looks like you are trying to ignore me. By tagging me you obviously wanted to ensure I saw your comments about my motives for posting. The moderator has repeatedly cautioned against ascribing motives to posters.
Discussing this case, this situation that occured in the Dressage community by people involved in that same community does not mean that those commenting can influence or be influenced by any of the primary participants.
Suggesting that’s the case implies that the person suggesting it can or is, to me.
But then to drag out this warning from the mods… 🤦
.
But you brought it up… So wherever did that idea come from, that MB could or would have the ability to influence how any of the COTH members- who post in a way suggesting they do not believe the Kanareck narrative- comment?

Eggbutt posted the Grande video and tagged me several times to watch it. I watched it.
My original point on his credentials was that if he were a psychiatrist and a member of the American Psychiatric Association, it is a violation of the organizations code of ethics and rules to publicly diagnose someone you haven’t examined in person.
A credentialed psychiatrist would be forbidden to make such a video. By default, then, any such video can only be made by someone not a credentialed psychiatrist.
BTW, there are also YouTube videos by credentialed psychiatrists explaining why they object to what Dr Grande is doing.
I do not hold a PhD. In terms of getting a BA or BS degree, in my view that may or may not represent a big achievement depending on the institution granting the degree. I think the PhD is the same.
