Well, let's not beat on Doug too much here. I will have to agree with him to a certain degree as well. I have seen people post a question that if they had only scanned down half a page or so, they would have seen a very similar topic just discussed a shortwhile ago. The RCU search function is often times flaky, BUT..., I have on several occasions responded to a new question by going back to do a search for another thread in which I had answered a similar question, found the thread, and then post the URL to the old thread as my answer. It sure saves me a lot of time typing the same old thing again. Now, if I could find my own post in 2mins, I would think somebody else could find it in 5mins, no?

Having said that, if I don't feel like answering the same question repeatedly, I just don't. Either somebody else will jump in, or the new poster will go do a search after getting few responses. None of us are paid to answer questions here, so participation is strictly voluntary.
