I promised myself that I wouldn't get in the middle of any flame wars but
I just had to say something about my experience.

The day I stopped looking for free handouts and became self-sufficient in
my ability to find the answers myself was the day someone told me to RTFM
a few years ago. It was a friend of mine and it was a little hurtful. But
he was right! The answer was right in the man page.

Then I felt stupid for asking.

Since then my skills at troubleshooting went through the roof. You can
literally train yourself to be a walking encyclopedia not by knowing the
answer but by knowing how to find the answer without anyones help.

Sometimes it takes a mean push to get someone on the right track. You
might not like it but you can't deny the results it can bring.
