Well, to be able to learn, one must be open.  Repeating questions over and
over without showing an effort will turn off any human teacher.  The
advantage of the computer is it won't quit trying to help you.

When someone helps someone else there is always an expectation of respect.
Otherwise these lists would not exist.

There's people with lots of experience and expertise here, lots of patience
too it seems, and they have all provided similar advice.  Try to read other
sources of material, try the examples, try by yourself.  Otherwise you will
always have to ask the same questions and it will take you a lot more time
than what it should.
