While I certainly have gotten all pissed off in this thread now...I
think both sides need to re-evaluate.

On your side, you need to both stop with your little hints of "you're
an idiot" in your responses.  Key words like these from developers who
think they are above others is what I'm talking about:

"Of Course"
"Why would you do that"
"Obviously"

key words like this are unneccessary when you are trying to help out a
fellow.  So please, this is not a one way highway here for bashing
today.
