- I also agree that AM's preference seems to be hetero. However the conclu-
- sion above concerning the preferences of non-metallic writers is not defin-
- itively supported by either the books or AM's recent post on the subject.
- Considering the attitudes attributed to the "hold-bred" Pernese it would
- seem likely that , at least, a large minority of the non-metallic riders
- would be hetero since a good number of Candidates for Impression are from
- the holds.
