NOw Rob,,, we are "NEWbies" and a bunch of folks too lazy to look at google... but really, there was some discussion a while ago about how it feels when you are "lost in the ether" to recieve "STFW-G" or "RTFD", and how we would try and be as civil as possible about it, and even go so far as to do the search, and then reply " a search on google for "lost in the ether" came up with 27,000 hits, and the one _I_ personally liked was "http://www.lost_in_the _ether.info" (note; I don't think that site really works) I is often pretty hard for someone (that just figured out that the cupholder keeps breaking when it wants to retract into the box for no reason, and it spills the coffee each time too) to figure out just which of those 27,000 pages really have some info that might help and are not just selling stuff.
