Your findings are thankfully different than mine. I will admit, I didn't read the manual/tutorials before posting my first post (it used br tags for spacing). Yet, I wasn't told to "RTFM" in a mean way, actually several people on the chatterbox gave me advice and pointed me to the tutorials. At that time I assume people thought I was a guy, which I am, as I used he in conversation and pain isn't a "female nick" (assuming you use the 1950 definition of what female nicks are).

That's just me though and one path in life doesn't cover all the hikers
