People, people:
In general, I do agree, that when a post starts with " ... but i am getting lazy"
I find it a little lazy. Well, it even claims to be lazy.
However, there have been a bunch of instances of newbie-attacks on this list
lately, and if that's the type of environment this is going to end up creating, I
might as well unsubscribe right now. I generally try to ignore messages that make me
"get a bit peeved," not lash out at the people who write them. There have been a few
instances where I posted a meaningful question, and no one took the time to answer.
Perhaps because we're too busy responding (negatively or positively) to simpler
questions, or maybe because Mercury was in retrograde. Made me figure it out myself
(which is an excellent thing.)
But yes, not only RTFM, download a copy of it. Wallpaper your house with it. Burn
it on CD and distribute it to your friends. Sell it on the street for $1 (or euro).
Make a php site mirror in your closet. Read the last 5 messages on the list that have
"date" in the title. Type "php adding dates" into google. Sell guns to third-world
countries to finance your php-support-question habit, and pay Zend and MySQL AB to
answer your questions. Read Julie Meloni articles when you're on the can. Sit on the
beach and ponder more efficient ways to addslashes() and stripslashes() using
functions. There's tons of resources out there.
my two cents.
