Lighten up a little, there's a good chap. I have students on performance tuning wondering what the word "commit" means, so things *could* be worse. I try and smile, explain as best I can, and move on. There's never been a need to call anyone a moron. I have students who swear that Hit Ratios are everything 'cos Richard Niemic tells them so. And when I demonstrate otherwise, they get angry and argumentative. I try very hard to smile, leave their objections hanging in the air, and move on. I didn't need to call them a moron. Things could be *much* worse. *Try* to be nice.
