Many people have commented on how lively this forum is. I think that's because beginners feel they are not risking ridicule or wrath to ask questions. I can't remember a single flame war. I'd like to thank everyone for keeping it civil. Even Atang1 didn't make anyone stoop to name calling.
Having looked through several forums for information, I can understand how anyone, faced with the uncertain prospect of an answer despite days spent in front of the computer, might quickly give up and ask for help. Even using a search engine is no guarantee that a forum does not contain the answer you seek, and that you have not missed it. Barry has put by far the best help into Puppy that I've seen in any software, which unfortunately means that most people come to Puppy expecting little or nothing. RTFM is not really helpful advice, until they have had time to get to know Puppy and see what a treasure trove it is. So thank all you knowledgeable people who patiently answer those stoopid newbie questions.
