I was half-tempted to ask you to do a Forum Search on the term Forum Search. =) I usually provide a reference when a question is asked that has already been answered. Some questions don't have a quick answer. Once I know a good answer has been posted, it's much faster for me to point you there instead of re-typing everything. Finally, the people who answer questions on the Forum don't work for you. If you're the twenty-ninth person to ask Shokai when he logs on, I'm not real inclined to answer yet again. I'm sure Shokai isn't either. It is faster for you to just punch Shokai's name into a search, and find your own answer. Plus, you haven't shifted any work onto another person. See? Easy. Fun. Good for you. Good for answerer.
