Sure, that applies to children asking questions
to their parents or teachers.

It applies less when you call technical support; though
the support staff will usually remain patient and polite
as long as you pay good money for your support contract.

It doesn't apply at all to computer professionals sending out
their questions to thousands of people all around the world,
hoping for free help from volunteers.

Ouch.
Now i have lowered the signal-to-noise ratio for everybody, too.

Sorry,
