Two suggestions:

1) Select the correct newsgroup. gnu.chess is about GNUchess, and
   questions and problems around that program.  It's not about
   chess in general, for which subject I recommend rec.games.chess
   as far more suitable.

2) Restrict stupid questions to the US.  Or whatever the closest
   area is.  Posting stupid question all over the world is not
   a good idea. (Note: I'm taking your word for the stupidity of
   the posting.)

3) Check local resources. Your local library is sure to have at least
   one book that explains the rules.

(Well, all-right, three. So I can't count :-)

In the rec.games.chess group you would probably have been pointed to
caissa.onenet.net, and the resources in /pub/chess, which as far as I
remember include a copy of the FIDE rules of chess.
