Hello David ,

<<Makes sense that "newbies" be asked to contribute some special FAQs
for other newbies. "Old pros" can "look over the shoulder" and be
sure
the facts are right.

But the newbie's own descriptions and labels (nomenclature) will
likely be more appropriate for the other newbies that have general
questions.

It is very difficult for "senior users" to anticipate the newebie
questions and remember how puzzling it all was for us. >>

   I agree. Two years back as I began learning hardware I promised
   myself not to lose touch with entry level "fog" and to remember
   that confusion. With time I saw that grow harder as I became
   accustomed to acronyms and verbal shorthand.

     I have a question for you. If I hit reply to your post the entire
     text is quoted. Instead I copy the relevant text and click on New
     Message.

     Is it necessary or polite to place these << quoted text >> marks to
     indicate quoted text?

     I'd like to get correctly formatted (word wrap etc.) but don't
     know the settings. I'm not at a point where I have preferences
     yet so volunteered settings are appreciated.
