"Dear xyz, Your question can easily be researched online. We suggest you give it a try and to look it up yourself. This will be beneficial both to you and to us. We do encourage to ask questions only when they have been researched first."
On usenet - as well as on most technical forums / mailing lists / etc -, this usually condensed in a well-known four letters acronym : "RTFM"
Hopefully c.l.py is an unusually friendly and polite place, so we tend to say it a bit more elegantly and most of the time we do indeed provide a link.
This being said and given your attitude - you may not realize it, but by now you would have been flamed to hell and back on quite a few other newsgroups -, I'm very tempted to switch to option 2.
