Hi,

not for nothing, why do you care?  Maybe they don't need one but, want one?  
Couldn't we honestly make a similar claim about half the apps discussed on this 
list?  Do we need an app just to make a grocery list? Do we need an app that 
plays special chimes on the hour?  The answer for most is probably no.  But, 
they're there for us to use nonetheless.  I'm sure, if I looked on your IOS 
device, I could probably point out an app or to and go " why on earth do you 
need that?"  I honestly don't see what ones education has to do with this at 
all.  I am only raising this issue because, your message at least to me, 
sounded so condescending, I felt compelled to do so.  In my opinion, it is 
posts like yours, that might cause some to not ask questions thinking they 
might ask something silly and prompt a negative sounding response.

Just my 2 cents.
