counter productive and a TOTAL waste of time.
for some reason this RUDE behavior started several months ago when
some NEW people started answering questions.
is this a result of the summit meeting and some creative seminars.

You've said it time and time again, and you've been wrong time and
time again. Not everyone is an expert in all technologies, and

else
where he can get the right answer, that *is* being helpful.
