- Apology accepted...I've been flamed for so many things I tend to just
- try and ignore them whenever possible.
-
- My original comment was something to the extent of asking what the poster
- was thinking. Obviously I am not telepathic so it is sometimes helpful to
- get to the source of the problem and correct any misconceptions if they
- exist.
-
- I've been tutoring for many years now and computer science in particular
- for about the last 2 years so these are just the kind of questions I try
- to get out.
-
- Sometimes I do get overly passionate about a reply when the same FAQ
- related question is seen more than 3 times in a week ;-).

- Back to your regularly scheduled USENET reading pleasure!
