Exactly, guys. Why sign up for a listserv and then kick back out-of-office
replies to everyone on the list that posts a message. Ridiculous.
Oh, and my FAVORITE one is what you mentioned, T.A.. These lazy so-and-so's
that post questions like, "What is JSP?" or "How do I build an e-commerce
application in JSP using servlets, applets and beans?" Hey, why don't we
just come over there and do your job for you. Geesh.
Thanks, I'll sit back down.

And if that wasn't enough you have the S.L.U.Gs (selfish, lazy,
useless, gobers)that want their knowledge spoon fed to them by those of
us who have taken the time and effort(of course, not to forget the hair
that we pulled out of ours heads) learning and perfecting our craft.
