	It really isn't, but we are all newbies about certain things.
I have been involved with UNIX in general for about 14 years and Linux
for about 4 and the Linux community is great about helping people who
will help themselves.  All of us from time to time run across a
situation we have never seen before and the archives don't always get
close enough to answer our questions so everybody should remember that
one of these days, they will have a mess on their hands and not know
why and need help.
