Um, John, if it's entry-level work, where should they have learned it since
their entry level and you aren't?

I don't have a problem with answering an intelligent question over
and over.
My problem is with people that spend so little effort looking for the
information on their own that they can't crank up their little
browser and enter two words in the search space or don't bother
looking at the archives to see if the EXACT same question was asked
about 2 weeks ago. What? They're new, so they don't know about the
archive? They would have it they either lurked for 48 hours, or
looked at the footer of every list message.
We're here to help with problems...not do the entry-level work that
we all learned through time and effort.
