- But before asking questions, people should read the FAQ. That avoids
- having the same questions asked over and over again:
-
- You sit at your desk, and a dozen times a day people ask you what
- time it is. You like being helpful, but find the question repetitive.
- So you hang a clock on the wall. Now you don't mind if they ask you
- the date, but for the time they can just read the clock.

- The original poster obviously hadn't looked at the FAQ. Maybe he
- didn't know, maybe it wasn't worth his time. Either way, he got the
- help he was looking for. Either directly or as a pointer where to find
- it.
-
- And as an aside, you can expect to find those that answer questions
- here to be somewhat -pedantic. As a forum dedicated to C, that
- shouldn't be surprising.
