Bravo, John!
I am fairly new to the net myself, and I'm sick and tired of seeing
self proclaimed 'net gods' jumping all over new users who are not as
knowledgeable as they are. Those folks seem to have forgotten that they
MUST have been novices once. Their attitude is arrogant, offensive, and
prevents us new users from contributing to the net (several times I've
thought of replying to some note, but then decided not to, because I
don't wan't some insolent a**h*** jumping all over me because I did this
and that...).
So, all you enlightened net gods out there, when you see a novice make a
mistake, try not to torn the poor soul apart, and try to HELP HIM for a
change!
