yeah...i'm getting sick of this myself. too many school homework questions or script kiddies (that can't script) and want to scrape email addresses off sites, and want the whole code given to them in perl. neither of the above actually want to learn anything. and there's also the non-software engineers that get to write at least some code for a living, and want it fixed for them..but not having much wherewithall, they often can't see the forest for the trees. yawn.
