Damn well said. I find myself checking this place less and less because of all the posts matching that list.
It drives me nuts seeing so called programmers asking for people to basically do their work for them or asking questions that prove they havent bothered to read the book at all... It's like cake has been adopted by a horde of lazy half assed coders that think its a silver bullet for making applications quickly and cheaply but they haven't bothered to actually learn it properly so they just jump on here and ask trivial questions hoping someone will do the work for them...
