I do try to research everything. The problem is Wikipedia and everywhere else make simple stuff into a book and use developer speak that I can't understand. They take all the fun out of learning.

Naah, Wikipedia is the very basic info, mostly for kids

For technology I will agree. If you try looking up sports injuries or body parts/muscles you do not know, that is another story!

Jaclaz, do you not eat, sleep or bathe and spend all your time reading computer Wikis and Microsoft Knowledge Base articles? Because you know an awful lot about technology.

While I agree to a point, everyone has their specialties. I think that given time, Jaclaz can possibly replace google since he has all the relevant links, while google likes to toss a bunch of other things in there, especially when it does that "we searched for this instead of what you typed, click here to actually search for what you typed in." crap.

Yeah, Jaclaz is the new search engine. Best of all he's malware-free. Everybody has a purpose. Nobody knows it all. The intent of forums, just like MSFN, is to bring diverse minds together to solve all problems. Never be afraid to ask for help or feel stupid asking for it. We all learn in different ways and at different speeds. I never forget that and try to return the favor whenever I can. There's way too many idiotic things in this industry to keep it all straight, all the time.
