    Have you noticed that if someone asks a question in say the General Database forum there will end up several other similar posts? This also happens at non CP sites. It is like the person 1) Does not do a search, 2) Does not read the days posts, 3) Is an idiot (see thread (Idiots) below) :confused:

      All down to sheer laziness, the internet is breeding a generation of hack-by-question programmers amateurs.
