And I thank you for posting it. I feel it is very important that such attitudes be held by the "powers that be". We have similar standards within #freebsd on undernet. We hold that rudeness is never tolerated. Questions are never dumb questions. Ignorance can be cured. Stupidity cannot. We have low tolerance only for that that are not willing to learn. cheers. -- Dan Langille The FreeBSD Diary http://www.FreeBSDDiary.com/freebsd To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
