Enough with the newbie C questions!

Recently, I've noticed many people asking basic C questions on this list. Questions about conditional expressions, pointers, return values. This bothers me. Newbie Objective-C questions are one thing (though I am getting heartily tired of seeing "when do I retain/release" questions), and I don't have a problem with newbie AppKit questions, but C?

To you newbie programmers: If you don't know C, you aren't ready. There are many books at your local library. There are classes out there too, even in high school. It is easy to teach yourself everything you need to know about C, especially with the help of the Internet. There are better forums for C questions than this mailing list! Please use them!

Thank you, and good night.
