Often the major part of my problem is knowing just how to ask. One thousand years ago in a college calculus class (late '60s early '70s) we were asked "Do you have any questions before the assignment?" No one raised there hands but me. I said that my question was that I understood so little this assignment that I di *not* know what question(s) to ask. made me 'friends' with the prof and he was 'softer' from there on. :-) -- David _______________________________________________ xfce mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce
