Exactly, we all have lives outside of the list...think about that 
statement.  The research that many of us do that goes into these posts 
requires hundreds of hours of testing.  We share it freely...but we 
need not to be abused.  Everybody needs to do their part.  I might 
suggest that if you want to find out about something try going to the 
public library and use their computers they have T1 lines.  In the old 
days we all had to go to the library if we wanted to learn.

The answers are in the archives...I told people were to look...in the 
total realm of information about digital printing that's a pretty 
constrained search space. I wasn't suggesting to google your brains 
out.  Many of us on the list have answered the same questions literally 
hundreds of times over the past year.  Any idea how long that takes 
us?...a lot longer than one or two searches through the archives on a 
28K modem.

I don't mean to be tasty about this...but we all need to act 
responsibly.
