His wording was rather unclear as to the fact he was confused. It
sounded to many of us as though he was looking for us to feed him the
name of the function because he was to lazy to STFA. At any rate he
clarified later at which point I believe he received less flack.
Ultimately it stood as a lesson on how to ask questions the smart way
which just happens to be listed in the newbie guide.
