Re: More on Beware Generals Bearing a Grudge

_most_ polo players -- and people with strings of polo ponies -- are aristocratic, no? if there are a lof of exceptions, it would be people who live on farms.

	Hey Jim,
	I played polo for twenty years and I am not now, nor was I ever, an
	aristocrat nor were any of those that I played with.  On the other hand,
	my string of ponies never exceeded three, the minimum needed to play a
	full game.
