I agree about technical question being sent to the questions-list but 
being newbies in fbsd deosn't mean that all people here are newbies in 
computers...
I'd also like to add that many "newbies" that are not in the 
questions-list can benefit from listening to other peoples questions so 
I would suggest that they subscribe to the questions-list...
