No problem, it is just a pet-peeve of mine. I try to get my info from search-engines whenever possible.
You can usually get your answer from Google in 20-30 seconds. Even if you can't find the answer, you've only wasted 20-30 seconds. Compare this to:
1) Asking a friend. Maybe they answer the phone, maybe they don't. Maybe they reply to email ASAP, maybe they don't. Maybe they know the answer, maybe they don't. And if they don't know the answer, they're probably gonna search Google (which you could've done in the first place!).
2) Posting on message boards. Same as asking a friend. Even if you get an answer, it could take several (or more) minutes.
It is like watching a football game, and then somebody asks "Hey, what's the score?" Moron, look @ the friggin TV...the score is right there in the corner!!!!!!!
Anyway, that's my rant for the today.
