I realize I'm contributing to the problem by writing this, but...

Every time there's a post like this, it seems that the meta-discussion
about cluelessness and the lack of ability to use the 'net far exceeds
the amount of bandwidth that was taken up by the original clueless
poster (which in this case was exactly two sentences sent twice).

Can't we just let the moderators unsubscribe the poor saps, and get on
with the 3D discussion?  In this case it was pretty obvious that English
was not the poster's native tongue.  Recall also that the list has had
an address change very recently.  Let's all extend a little charity
toward the computationally challenged, OK?  The irony is that people were
just recently defending this list as being so "genteel", and then we
get this.
