With such a high IQ you sure should know how to use google.
I do - and I do. However, my point was that not everyone is at your
level of knowledge of Wine - as, indeed, you are not at my level of
knowledge in some field or other (not knowing your background, I cannot
say what that field may be, but I can guarantee that there is one) - and
simply to accuse people of being dumb because of that is somewhat
offensive. Should you ever need my help in that field - or anyone
else's help in a field in which their knowledge and experience is
superior to yours - would you be happy with my calling you dumb simply
because you come to me for assistance and education rather than going to
Google? I suspect you would not tolerate that kind of treatment from me
and I would therefore ask that you not expect us to tolerate it from
you. Thank you.
