This is a very busy list, over 100 message in a quiet day and most
people
are helpful and decent, don't mind reading and learning. Unfortunately
there are some who mostly post stuff like 'read the manual' and other
shit
like that. Stuffing e-mailboxes with such garbage day after day doesn't
do
anybody any good even if the manual is not being read as much as it
should
be. Is it too difficult to not answer the post at all if you disagree
with
the content?

I know that this has circulated, but RTFA (toungue-firmly-in-cheeck)
http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
My suggestion, quit posting "shit like this" when it has been covered
dozens of times. Talk about "noise". Look how many replies this thread
generated. Looks very much to me like you are

I know I use RTFM, STFW,
and STFA a lot, but when the poster makes it apparent that they have
done no research it is an expected and acceptable answer.
HTH!
