Jac,

That is exactly the way the Director list serve is. Those who really know don't pass on what they learned and it is rather 'stuffy'. That is one reason why I abandoned Director in the end.

That's one of the things I like about being in my 40s: I got started when computing was mostly a bunch of techno-hippies who were all about sharing. :)

I remember a fella on an old WildCat BBS (that was before the Web was invented) who taught me how to parse Mac 'VERS' resources. I vowed to return the favor once I knew something worth sharing, and he encouraged me to pay it forward, which I've been trying to do ever since.

His name was Gordon Apple, and he was a fellow member of the LA Mac User Group. If I've ever posted anything useful to you and you happen across him at a conference, be sure to tell him "Thanks". He's a swell guy, and his sharing spirit, like so many of the time, was a real inspiration to me.
