Please quote the part where I said it was easy if you'd be so
kind? I can't seem to locate it on my own. No one ever said
things were going to be easy in this industry; if they were then
many of us would be out of a job :) But that's really not the
point of my post as you really should be aware of, Les.

I am fully aware of all this. And I also am aware that you know
of the back-history of Hadi's blatent misuse of this list.
I, and quite a few others I might point out, are well aware of
Hadi's use of this list to solve all his problems without doing
any research beforehand. If it was only on occasion it would
not be a big deal; however it's not a rare event here.
So, yes, I maintain that google, and the other resources I mentioned
should be his first line of help when issues he's not versed in
arise.
Excuse me if this doesn't add an air of spoonfeeding. I am all
for helping people. I am not, however, all for being used.
If you'd like to continue this thread then I ask you, as a
benefit to this list, that you do so privately to the address
above. Thank you.
John
