Simon wasn't asking an unreasonable question. He's been here before
asking intelligent questions that demonstrate he has researched the
problem(s) in some depth.

And, man man, or info, as a front-end to the self-help system are *not*
good ways to learn some of the less common idioms - like system
migration - because they are instructions for the individual tools, not
hints at how to combine them effectively.

And, to add to your insult, your email followed right on the tails of a
mini-flame war about contributions to the list, and positivity or
negativity...

What's your beef?

Rob
