That's pretty much it, yes. Many years of experience have shown us by tedious example that most people ask the wrong question. Sorry you got caught, and sorry you feel insulted. Your question was easy to write, but was one that only a couple of people would know how to answer off the top of their head. If you want to get a question answered by an expert, you have to make the effort to not seem like a random newbie. I'm sorry it has to be that way, but that's the reality of the net.
Thanks. Lately I've been feeling like I'm being chased by a pack of wild dogs ;-)
