Hi

I was reading your response to Neil and really felt this was too far. 
Neil cannot be accused of being this. In fact I have written some 
questions that I now consider fairly lame but Neil responded as if they 
were important to him. If I look back on the archives I don't fame an 
elitist back someone keen to help a newbie understand more. He was 
willing and still is (as far as I know!) to spend a whole day teaching 
newbies how to set up lamp etc. I have nearly three years Linux useage 
but am still a newbie. Do I find myself rejected because I haven't 
grown in knowledge that much. No I don't. Do I find myself rejected 
because I haven't got a Linux box at the moment. No I don't. Neil and 
all the other guys on this list are not elitist and I have never been 
branded a luser and I for one hope you take this remark back.

Rich
