    I must say, I find it rather disturbing, not to say innapropriate, for a 95 year old man and a 15 year old girl to be carrying on in this way.

    Perhaps I&#39;m just old fashioned.

    Les Miserables would be just fine. Your place or mine?

    edit: TSB? Newbie you know.

    That would very much be a matter for the Chaperone.

    However I believe public places only would be the norm.

    Can I apply to be the chaperone?

    i agre jonno as everyone at least used to be a newbie in this feild so everybody is still a n00b in a feild they haven&#39;t yet tryed

    people are often more competetive than cooperative these days

    i think that the situation with new users on the internet seems especially hash because most of us know that the internet is far from friendly place, and one has to have a well calibrated &#39;bull-shit meter&#39;.
    this tends to be expressed as giving no quarter, and being very suspicious.
    this linked with the fact that most answers are already written [somewhere else, if only the n00b had searched]
    makes for a situation where new users can only expect a baptism of fire
    mostly because they don&#39;t realise how much research it often takes to complete a &#39;simple&#39; task for the first time on a computer, and that after that it can become second nature
    all the spyware that you get with regular kazaa for instance, new users have no idea that such things exist. which is why packaging the spyware is feasible yet. corperations picking on n00bs

    this board is comparatively &#39;urbane&#39; compared to some of the shit fights out in cyberspace

    &#39;alas, such is life&#39;

    i think it&#39;s a bit like back in the day, making the boys all play rugby at the public schools, &#39;building character&#39;, &#39;toughen up their hides&#39;, & all that. brutalising social rules into the neophytes, but with far less risk of spinal injury
