OK, so what age should we use for the cutoff limit? By the way, age is an extremely poor basis for judging intelligence. There are 7 year olds with IQs over 150 and 25 year old imbeciles. Maybe we should put a notice on the handbook page requiring a minimum IQ level with the appropriate experience level before allowing a user to view said pages. Then again, perhaps we should just remove the handbook all together and let everyone figure it out for themselves. No dumbing down at all required. We certainly would not want to over do the 'friendly' concept. I suppose some of use, you obviously, knew it all when you started out. -- Jerry ✌ FreeBSD-Ports.user@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or get ignored.
