Ok...I smell a flame war starting, so I will make a statement before it 
even gets started. I'm refering back to a message that was posted the 
other week by Femme. She said that one of the first places she thought to 
look would be the expert list because of the very name of the list and 
what it suggests. (I am of course paraphrasing) which makes a lot of 
sense. if you're a completely "new" Linux user that question about "how to 
rename a file" is a perfectly valid question AND it is equally reasonable 
and understandabl for a brand new user to look directly to an expert 
for the answer to that question. 

ergo, the beginning of the journey and the gaining of knowledge. It all, 
we all must start somewhere. what better place to start the journey then 
by asking the experts?

worked for me when I started...
