By doing what? Jumping on the poor kid and pounding him till his atoms are split? I say kick him out for recycling a thread. That way he'll learn better and quicker. Nobody learns when 20 people make sarcastic comments to a already confused person! I distinctly remember when I came here as a newbie and posted a question. It was you who told me not to top post. I didn't know what it was, so I read up on it and modified my subsequent posts accordingly. And if *you* ( and everyone of you ) think back, then you too were newbies at some point.
