"I'm not really demanding anything."

You are asking for advice, when someone provided advice on what to read up on rather than give you 100% working solutions you behave like a spoiled child.

"Personally - at this point - I could care less what people think of the question."

Actually, I think peoples opinion of the question is that the person who asked it isn't interested in learning, and will react with a crazed outburst of offensive language and wild, unfounded accusations if they don't get exactly what they want. We see this from time to time here.

"I viewed Corion's profile, and he is listed as a "sage". He disusts me. He has influence over the site, and, yet, he discourages open discussion because he doesn't like the nature of the question."

Not that Corions reputation requires defence, something you know already because he previously advised you. In my experience there is no evidence of Corion discouraging discussion, and I'm sure you have no evidence to back up your statement. Also, I think you meant: s/disusts/disgusts/

"Take it from a disappointed newbie"

You've been here over a year and have posted several times. I'd hardly call you a newbie.

"You can answer the question; Lock the post or my account; Delete it; or whatever you want at this point. If you all dont like my attitude, then maybe you can treat people with a little more respect in the future."

I think you'll find that this is one of the most helpful online communities around. Perhaps not what you're looking for since you seem to react badly to sound advice. If you don't like something simply don't use it. Simple as that. Feel free to read the site documentation regarding account deletion.

In conclusion:

"What a fun learning experience this has been."

I'm not convinced learning anything is your goal.
