But as I said earlier, I don't know the exact time line of how the events unfolded. However, had there been a story about 30 horses were set free in front of an oncoming fire, that probably saved their lives. The management of the horse ranch, "WOULD HAVE LOOKED LIKE HERO'S!!"
You know the Horse part of the story is real. But the Horse story is also a "Metaphor" about how people need to be ready in case of an Emergency!! DarkShadow again proved, he is in my opinion the cleverest person on this board. (He got it right away!!)
