The old adage still stands: You can give a man a fish and he will eat that day. You can teach a man to fish and he will eat for the rest of his life. Far too many people in this day and age of information overload and sound bytes expect to be given all the answers. Not many do any research at all on their own. It is a very sad state of affairs when someone cannot take a few moments of their time to look up information. Luc Bouchard On Sun, 2004-03-07 at 12:40, Dale A.
