Go for you life Philip! I agree whole heartedly with your approach, I had
to ask someone to "leave" when after two weeks of "coding" for us, someone
noticed he was simply creating folders within folders and moving files in
and out of them...
Another thing folks should use is the Ben Forta Bible, both Old and New
testaments (blue and green, simple and advanced), take it home, sleep with
it as a pillow and try to absorb the information while they sleep!

It's still easier to look into documentation for something that simple than
to ask a list which can take 5-10 minutes (at a minimum to respond)
We have actually got rid of a developer who never looked in books or on-line
documentation and asked for help about everything
A typical question was "How do I change the background color on a page?"
when they were meant to know HTML
I can understand asking questions which aren't readily available in the
documentation within a few minutes of searching, but asking questions like
this is just plain lazy
