Why is it that some people fail to understand that such "honest questions"
waste the time of people, even if all they have to do is hit "delete"?
Or should I be allowed to ask any on-topic question so long as it's
"honest," regardless of where else I might find the information without
bothering developers who have seen 199 other people ask the same question in
the previous 18 months.

I'm tired of seeing this as a reason. Cocoa documentation has not a single
"description forthcoming," and by extension, Google, my site, the other
sites, and the mailing list archives can all be considered "documentation."
There's NO dearth. And with a search engine (hey, even Help Viewer has one)
there is no real lack of organization.
I'm all for helping newbies, but sometimes "tough love" is what's needed to
get a better programmer in the end. I said my last post was my last, and I
guess I lied... Hopefully I won't this time.
