Nick, Yes, you are right. This forum is not designed to be an "Oracle" for any and all questions. I see it more as a troubleshooting and idea-kicking forum. I think that some people on this list do not have as many resources as some of us do and this list is the only "How do I..." place that they have at their disposal.

These kind of vague requests smack of laziness or unwillingness on the OP's behalf to make any attempt to research the topic prior to asking the question. I would argue that this forum is not to get a quick easy answer. These one-line requests p*ss people off. Also, the fact that some Posters do not spell-check their submissions (e.g. spell the word Exchange wrong?!!!?) gets on my t*ts. Not to mention the inclusion of text-speak in this specific case.
