*Good!* It was *meant* to be.

Not very hard you didn't.

Fine. Be like that. If you run away and hide at the first tiny tap of 
reproof, you're not going to learn very much, though.

/Au contraire./ I am attempting to encourage an attitude of self-
sufficiency and open-minded enquiry. My many freelance clients pay for my 
assistance and they get a great deal more hand-holding and understanding, 
but I still try to teach them to think for themselves as well.

[Guffaw] I'm not and wouldn't be. (Aside: more comprehensive research 
there, heh?) But feel free.

Good grief. Do you really behave in such a childish manner in the rest of 
your life? You cannot be serious. What are you, twelve or something? Get 
real. Get a grip. I answered your question, quickly, factually and 
completely. I was helpful and informative of my own free will for no gain 
on my part. 

I just did it in a sarcastic manner. If you can't handle that, it's your 
problem, not mine.
