Please don't send us any students who want solution manuals, homework
done, won't read over their post to see if it makes any sense before
sending it, who expect us to read their mind because like them we of
course know what they're talking about, who are grammar Nazis that
won't punctuate properly and who abusively use abbreviations.
For extra credit, don't send us any students who won't include problem
statement and other essential context in their reply, who won't clip away
unneeded ****tions and who use Google newsgroups. We don't want Google
newsgroup users because Google, when it quotes a post, will turn multiple
spaces into an obnoxiously useless sequence of a's. Go away Google and
don't come back until you can learn to quote a post without editing it to
conform to your neo-stupid mentality.
Now if this abundance of op****tunities to be inept isn't sufficient for
modern school products, ie students, there yet remains op****tunities to
misspell and not use a spell checker.
