Re: Whistlin' Dixie FWIW, it doesn't matter if somebody doesn't know something. Everybody has individual strengths and weaknesses. Where one may know a ton about tech, they may not know beans about something else, and vice versa. >>you mentioned:&#147I wish like hell I was computer literate the way some of you are.&#148 The "problem" is when somebody makes a huge conspiracy issue out of something without bothering to learn or check out the facts. If there's something one doesn't know, then: 1. Make an effort to "get it". --or-- 2. Keep one's mouth shut. Either of the above is honest. Claiming "conspiracy" merely shows that one is ignorant and won't put forth the effort to educate themselves. Which is precisely Dixie's problem.
