Thread Name: Suggestion: Please Learn To Search First
Subject: RE: Suggestion: Please Learn To Search First
If you are intelligent and have been blessed with a talent for rapid effective searching, be glad and share it with other people, stop shushing them, it's mean-spirited and unworthy of folk folk.

I agree- but I also think it's fair to ASK people nicely to search first. After all, the idea isn't search and shut up-- it's just to try searching first.

If people hear that as shushing, that's on them. I think very few of us mean it that way.
