I appreciate your attitude on this, but: (1) My question was so simple I was sure it has been asked before. (2) There are hundreds of questions a day being asked and answered in that newsgroup (I should know, I was subscribed to it for exactly half a day), one or two from me a week isn't going to contribute much of anything, unless they're very esoteric and technical questions that have likely not been asked before.
