I will not be posting to or reading news.newusers.questions anymore.  This may
not be considered a great loss to anyone; it is certainly no loss to me.

In the past week, I have been flamed unnecessarily, both through net mail and
through the news system, for asking what I considered a very valid question,
and which no one seems to have a specific answer for.

If I cannot get a rational answer to a simple question, why bother asking? 

(Notice that, so certain UNIX gods who get pissed off at spendthrift undergrads
won't throw a gear, I am using a VERY short signature.)
