Reread what I was saying; I wasn't saying "You shouldn't ask here," but I
was commenting on the "why doesn't someone else start a faq-o-matic",
despite such things being easy to set up. Maybe I'm biased; it took me
about a day or so of concentrated effort to get orionsupport up
originally, and I really didn't know much (and still don't, really.) I
figure, if I'm not that bright and I can get something up like that in
relatively short time, surely others can do the same... yet what MOST
people are settling for is "Why doesn't someone else do it?"
