    Google is your friend

    Hi all. This is a little tutorial/complaint combo post.

    First off, a general rule about your problem. No matter how specific or complicated your problem is, there is an astronomically good chance that you are not the first one to have this issue.

    Second, those who help out here don't know everything. Not even close. In fact, the more you know, the more you realize how little you know.

    Combining those, there is a pretty decent chance that the answer to your question is not something that anyone comes up with off the top of their heads. When you ask a question, the first thing we do is hit up Google and look for the solution to your question.

    Now, here's the tutorial part:


    1. Before you ask a question spend at least 15 mins on Google trying to find the answer.
    2. There is no 2. End of tutorial.

    Now, here's the complaint part:
    I read the question. Not surprisingly, I don't know the answer. I go to Google and type in the keywords of your question. The solution is found less then 5 entries down on the first page.

    Moral of the story:
    IMO, this forum should be used AFTER self-help efforts turned up fruitless.
