My time is not more valuable then yours I never said it was however if I can
find the answer in an easier fashion such as from someone who don't mind
answering me why not use it?  If you don't want to answer someone because
they you feel it would waste your time then don't.  But expect the same
response on what you might feel is a vaild question and someone else thinks
would just be wasting their time.  If all the questions have been answered
then whats the point of a mailing list?
