That's a _quite_ true statement, I think :)
I have been reading the list for around a year now but unfortunately I
haven't really been active. I think maybe we can handle the
newbie-style of threads with a protocol (a stateless one is much
recommended ;)
a) Write a short answer or a pointer to some page about the subject
(where an answer could be found. Same applies to the PHP manual)
b) Write a pointer to a How-to-ask-questions-the-smart-way-style
document, gently pointing out what was wrong.
RTFMs may be well deserved if the come back doing it again (which
doesn't happen that often)
