After trying to help numerous people on fora, I’ve come to the conclusion that most of the question-askers are newbies and techo-novices who simply have no idea HOW to do research, even on the web, where Google makes it soooo easy. The rest are cheapskates who want the world to hand them a living AND the means to make it!

Yeah. Brainstorming is one thing — expecting other people to do your work for you is quite something else!

Ha! I’ve read many questions like this in various forums, and thought, “I wonder what would happen if there were no forums….” ?!

Ugh, duh is RIGHT! I told one forum person that if he’d done legwork and was unsucceessful and that’s why he was asking for help, SAY THAT when asking the question. For instance, if the editor is a total hermit who hasn’t been seen in public in 20 years, maybe the question would be justified. Otherwise, dude, pick up the phone and call the freakin’ magazine. Seriously. It’s not that hard.
