So, walking into a user's group meeting and taking the podium and proceeding to ask everybody in the room about an unrelated topic isn't rude?

The fact that before you asked the question you knew that it wasn't appropriate is what makes the damn question rude. Asking an inappropriate question isn't always rude, but asking one when you are totally aware it is inappropriate is rude.

The fact that you are asking this MySQL question in an Oracle newsgroup says very little about either your desire or ability to learn, anything.
