To all ... IMHO this sounded like a perfectly reasonable question. Yes, it
can be looked up on Google, but Terry chose a much more sociable method -
and asked real people. Yet sometimes respondents prefer to get snippy -
which reflects badly on the rest of us.

Netiquette isn't about being rude to people - AFAIK anyway - it is a method
which helps us all to get along in our virtual environment. Most of us
wouldn't abuse a co-worker and accuse them of wanting "spoonfeeding" if they
approached us at our desk to ask a (possibly obvious) question - so why do
we do it when we are online?

Apologies all - I have just seen too much unnecessary unhelpfulness in this
NG to not say anything. Anyway, have a nice day all :o)

Jon
