Thanks for the flaming, I wasn't pointing it back at you.
Sterling wasn't addressing you directly, but rather the disembodied questioning user. Still. he's right. If someone you've never met writes you an email, why should you feel compelled to answer it. An RTFM response takes time and encourages one-on-one feedback. Perhaps you dont receive enough user mail to understand that this is not necessarily desirable. There are numerous lists where a user can appropriately seek help. Asking the developer of a particular component directly is not an encouraged methodology.
