I have the Read TFM, and I'm afraid I wasnt clear. The web archives are

might alleviate some of the people getting upset with the load of
unresearched questions on the list.
I don't think that anyone is expressing displeasure at being asked the
same questions repeatedly, but rather the manner in which some of those
questions are being phrased.
But I do concur that Apple needs to solve the non-searchable archive
situation.

"The Trend over the last 20 years or so has been to design computer
languages that enforce a state of paranoia. You're expected to program
every module as if it were in a state of siege In Perl culture, by
contrast, you're expected to stay out of someone's home because you
weren't invited in, not because there are bars on the windows."
