[libreoffice-users] query ...

       ... this is an example of the inanity;
              rather than responding, as 1 thoughtful soul did do, this
person decides to ridicule me.

       Why shouldn't I have the right to know?; actually, why shouldn't the
list have the right to know?

       BTW - IF this narcissistic attitude on the part of some on this list
does not end, then the marketing of LO is fighting a losing battle;
             HOW can any user of this product learn, if we're attacked for
asking questions?

       Sure some questions might seem overly simple to those who know, but
to one who does not know, the answer, explained in a simplified manner,
might be just what's needed in order to continue using these machines.

       And, remember, that you 'experts' on these machines were not always
that way - you too had to ask questions and receive simplified answers.

Hello Anne,

This is a private mail.
Are you asking this question because you do not know the answer to it or
because you would like to ensure everybody has the right information?

Thank you,

Charles.
