Use the search engine yourself and you may notice that those of us who advocate its use are often the ones answering the questions (politely I might add). Maybe you'd like to start devoting more of your posts to answering questions, and less to defending the (supposed) downtrodden?
I don't have to use the search function to find threads where some of those same advocates can only seem to find the time to succinctly refer a newb to the search function either though.
