While it is annoying simply to post an article just to contradict or correct
someone, what is currently happening is even more annoying than that.

Please, please, read all of the posted news before you respond to an article.
Someone posted a question: "Why can't I use DA's with multifinder?" I knew the
answer. I'll bet most of the people here knew the answer. And someone posted
it. Good! But lots of other people posted answers, not having noticed that
someone had already posted a response. If you read to the end of the articles,
and THEN reply, you'll see if there's already been an answer to that question.

So SAVE BANDWIDTH (and netload) and check to see if someone has already
answered. Oh yes... and if you must flame me for this request, please do
it via email and save the ears of other net'ers... thanks.

Adam
