Maybe this "all or nothing" attitude to pedagogy is the reason why
it's taken you six years to learn less about Objective-C and Cocoa
than (I suspect) all of the people who replied to you (with many
man-hours of free top-quality consultancy I might add, nothing at all
like "OMG Use Teh Search N00b") picked up within a week?
You seem to think that if a concept is not explained in its entirety
on the first page of the documentation you stumble upon, it's not
worth knowing about. For someone who is so proud of having studied
under the man who invented hypertext, you show remarkably little
understanding of how to use it.
