The author may have been well-intentioned -- there are some real idiots out
there.  I remember reading that someone had phoned up tech support because
they had a problem when installing some software.  It kept saying "insert
disk 2" although he (the customer) had already put it in.  It turned out
that he'd put the disk 2 in without taking disk 1 out.  He had said it was
"a bit stiff".

But the thing is, someone so stupid wouldn't be able to find the help file,
let alone scroll down and read it.
