I have seen lots of postings from people who only _asked_ about these issues and were insulted in return. And, after all I think if the anxious questions would have been answered earlier and in a hmmm... more appropriate style many of the flame wars would not have ignited.

how many times does it need to be explained? You can't expect Vinnie to go through the rigamaroll every time someone posts something derogatory, just because they "didn't know"...
