Hi Fred and list, First off, kudos to you, Fred for recommending Anna and Dean's book! This is great!
However, several points off for style. ;) If you're going to offer assistance, please do it without the attitude. this goes for everyone. Yes, I know there are going to be repeat questions or notes you'd consider novice questions that you'd rather not read. This is fine. It's not fine to make someone feel lousy for asking them, no matter how much smarter you might decide to consider yourself than the questioner. The fact is that responses like these show the opposite. So please refrain from this sort of thing on the list. If you would rather not hear the same question again or would rather not answer such a question, then simply use your delete key and let someone else answer the question. At this point, there are many people on this list who are willing and able to answer any questions that may come up. If one person is tired of answering questions then someone else will be there to do so. This way, everyone can take a breather and all the questions get addressed. :) Please keep the list polite… Remember, people who might be lurking actually learn from reading responses. They also learn what is acceptable from the tone of these responses and the tone of the threads such responses generate. So make your responses positive. Frustration is normal. If you have issues then either write me or Raul off-list or address your concerns with the poster directly off-list as well. This list is a positive and welcoming place. Please keep it that way. Thank you all! Smiles, Cara :) On Apr 27, 2013, at 8:44 PM, Fred Olver <[email protected]> wrote: Ray, may I suggest a book to you? It is called "Getting started with the iPhone by Anna Dresner and Dean Martineau. It is available in several formats from the National Braille Press. I suggest this book because if you had read it before you received your phone or had it when your phone arrived, many, many, many, many of the multitude of questions which you have posed to the list in the last three weeks or so could have been answered without having to send what I figure to be somewhere near 200 messages to the list. I am not suggesting that you not ask questions, only that you give some thought to making use of a resource which is easily available to you and save the difficult questions for the list.
