Jeroen, I take your points... the email was half in jest though :) It would be an ideal world where everyone was willing to both teach and learn. I am used to dealing with people who are wanting to learn because of my extensive links with education and because my profession (ophthalmology/medicine) depends on people teaching each other and learning from each other. I understand that people in the computer industry who work with computers nine to five have a different perspective than I do. I'm just giving a different viewpoint. I don't have to 'be nice' and 'be careful of toes' lest I step on them like some other enthusiasts here who have dreams of joining 'teams' etc. I just use my computer for enjoyment and developing end user solutions. I do that well, and I am always willing to help others without attempting to classify them into various boxes before I deal with them. That comes from my medical training, where noone is refused services. Once you start helping on the basis of some parameter then you have strictly speaking discriminated. I leave it to others to decide whether they wish to discriminate... Oben Candemir To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
