90% of the time the problem is finding the right man page. F.ex. the FAQ starts 
with pppoe(8) which leads to the gigantic ppp(8) and you're shit out of luck if 
you read all those only to find out pppoe(4) is what you really want.

"Not ready" as in "young Skywalker?"

That's bullshit; Google's pagerank means more people are linking to Calomel, 
period. If googling a problem is considered "crass" or "lazy" then remove 
google site search from openbsd.org. Remove grep while you're at it, let 
newbies earn their OpenBSD creds by reading source code. What is this, a 
fucking fraternity?

You've got a bug alright: Calomel keeps on popping up despite being wrong, its 
site designed by a flaming unicorn, scripts made mostly of ASCII-art and 
useless comments to reinforce the genius of its egomaniacal self-jizz-gobbling 
writer -- and the conclusion is that the problem lies with that site, or people 
being stupid, lazy or "not ready".
