Well, sure, that's always an issue but when people ask a question in a dumb
way (different from asking a dumb question, note! ;)) then they have excuse
when people answer witha  curt dismissal, or "Yes, I know how that is done"
without elaborating or if they are just referred to the URL itself or even
'RTFM'!!!

And when other people explode with 'oh don't be rude' we can just refer them
to The Fine Print.
