Congratulations on having one less poster here on mac.programmer.help.
You didn't have to join in on this but apparently you are another one
of those posters with nothing better to do but assert your superiority
on other people asking for help by ganging up with another poster to
berate them for not being omnicient knowers of all things Cocoa/mac
whatever. This post could have just ended 5 posts back but everyone
here has nothing better to do than insult anyone else's intelligence.
