You would be surprised how much you learn by just hanging around and reading other's posts. You might not be able to sit down and whip off a perfect script like some of the experts around here; but you do pick up the "vocabulary" and you get a feeling for what the problems are. That means you can more effectively Google for answers.....so you deserve what you have attained.
It is a "sign of intelligence" to realize "how much you do NOT know".
