<< Women in Blacksmithing, I kind of agree with him that the horse has been 
 over ridden. An occasional reminder to the public is fine, but I don't 
 consider metal work to be gender specific and I don't need to have it 
 pointed out to me constantly. >>

Perhaps the subject is begining to be overdone.  At the same time, the letter 
was in response to the article "Women Do Iron" at the Artisan's Center of 
Virginia...and the exhibit was great.  Some very nice work on display, far 
better in person than the photographs in the Ring.  I was humbled, and 
inspired to do better.
