I guess I'm kind of new here, but this thread is really starting to annoy me. Users are what users are. If they were highly knowlegable, most of us would be out of work.

I don't know how to plumb, or connect the power to the water heater. I'm just a computer guy. No smarter or dumber than the guy who installs my water heater, or keeps my car running.
I don't know how to rebuild my transmission either, but I *DO* know how to not abuse it such that it would need serious repairs or a rebuild that is preventable (or at least delay-able) by driving like a reasonable person.
So what's the big deal? Be HAPPY you get to deal with "dumb"
