is it just me or are people just damned lazy to RTFM? Okay, if you don't undertsand something that's fine but some of the q's asked are just mind-numbingly dumb.

lazy. You can appreciate this.....GF told me her friend (who manages an IT group) got a call one weekend about a server that stopped responding. They didn't know what to do. "Did you read the contingencies manual?" she asked. No. If they had they'd have known that all they needed to do was reboot the server.

And to think i can't get a job in IT.

I need the extra java today.  I've been up way too late the last two nights, finishing the new Wheel of Time novel, "The Gathering Storm."  Number 12 in the series, and the author died after writing number 11.  The new writer they brought in to finish up this one, and two more books did a fantastic job, IMHO.

People are idiots. I've been telling you this since three days after I joined this forum.

It's like the old story that Scott Adams once told, about Kodak making a disposable camera called the "Weekender" and people calling to ask if it was okay to use it Monday through Friday. Might be apocryphal, but I somehow doubt it.

Dilbert can be highly enlightening!
