This is my first whine and hopefully my last....
How come people feel compelled to snap "Do a search!" when someone posts a question for which OK yes there are existing threads on the subject. So what if there are? If you don't want to respond positively to the post, keep your fingers away from the keyboard; there are others who are happy to oblige.
I learn a lot from reading these posts, some of which are on subjects that haven't crossed my mind. So if someone hadn't posted, I wouldn't have had the benefit of the ensuing conversation. Besides, having fresh posts is always nice...this is supposed to be a live forum, not a historical archive after all.
There. Now I feel better.
