Just spend five minutes with a search engine and you will
find lots of stuff.  For example:

An article about MC written for newbies.  It even

Nonsense.  Organization has nothing to do with it.
Dumb newbies will always be asking dumb newbie questions.
It's a law of nature.  Just ask any high school teacher.
In fact if the damn students would just RTFM, they
probably wouldn't need the teachers at all.

Cheers,
