<VV> the book

[J R Read_HML]

I generally try to help out the newBs with fairly specific answers (when I 
know them.... and with last week as an example - sometimes when I don't). 
Check the archives (or ask Connie and others) if you don't believe me.

After a while, if someone has not bothered to arm themselves with the 
appropriate source information after being told where to obtain it, I begin 
to feel USED and quit responding.

Essentially, I don't agree with the approach of going direct to VV FIRST for 
endless answers to stuff that is easy to find.  Sometimes it seems as if the 
party is too lazy to turn the pages and is expecting someone else to do it 
and report back.  THAT is not the spirit of VV to my way of thinking.

Now, when someone comes with a question like - I can't find this or I'm not 
sure how to interpret what I'm reading, THAT becomes an appropriate question 
from someone who's been around for a while.

I'll continue to help the newBs when I can.

Later, JR
