at some point everyone gives up (perhaps in disgust) on something,
instead of getting to know it better.  for example, you do not use M-f
and M-b, i do not use the menu- tool- or speed-bar, etc.  the tricky
question is how to guide newbies w/o poisoning them w/ prejudice.  a lot
of it depends on the attitude of the newbie w/ respect to newbiehood.
