If you're like me and don't mind, then go ahead and help the guy/girl out.
Thanks for the voice of decency, JJ. As a former teacher, I could spend pages explaining why someone might ask a question again that had been "answered" in another thread. If people like DPH are too bloody busy or important to answer, nobody is holding a gun to their gonads.
The search tool is a joke. I have used Google to search R'osity sometimes.
As for doing the work of searching for the questioner, I don't see that as a requirement. I have occasionally said, "There's a thread out that that helps out with this question" and left it at that. And I wouldn't be offended if someone answered me that way. Without being insulting, the answer tells me that a search might work... optimistic, but at least I know there is a needle somewhere in the haystack.
Civility is a one-way street around here. I'm getting used to walking upstream.
