This may well upset the frying pan, but come on, enough's enough.  All
sorts people, people THE list.  Which IMHO is far and away one the best.
Why? Tolerance.  Sure the same questions get asked again and again, so
what.  The answers are quite often different.  And even when they aren't,
those questions give newbees the chance to contribute.

Yes, a lot of good resources exsist, in books, in magazines, on the net.
It can infuriate to see them go unused and culling them for answers can be
frought with tribulation.  For some, even the clearest explanation is like
reading Conrady.  I know my understanding is vastly improved when I'm
challanged to explain to those who lack the foundation to understand.  Of
course it can try my patients, to the point of rudeness, particually when
I'm the one lacking the foundation.

I know I've made some foolish posts and am eternally greatful that the list
has suffered me gladly.  I also know better than to step into the middle of
this, but hey you can't keep a fool down.
