FAR too often now, people post trivial questions about electronics which simply shouldn't be asked. If I don't know something, I sure as hell don't go and declare it without a LOT of research. The art of finding solutions to problems has apparently now been reduced to a quick search on Google and then a whine on a newsgroup or discussion forum.
