This fascinates me (in a sick kind of way) I'm always amazed at the people who are angry when someone suggests that they research something themselves. Best theory I have at this time is that some people have had very little success in the field of learning, so when you suggest that they should learn something it's like rubbing salt in the wound. Just a theory. I don't even know why I'm writing this, just in a talkative mood today I guess. Either way, I wouldn't let it bother me Chris. -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
