I certainly don't want to start a flame war about this, but I think
that Danny's request deserves a further comment:

There has been only one true incident on this list duyring the last
year or so (that I can remember) of someone blatantly asking us to do
his or her homework. In the other cases (that I can remember), it was
more a case of: "If I had the time or convenient access to a library,
then I would look it up myself; but could someone who has the
information at his or her fingertips save me some labor?"
This is why I commented in my previous post: ".... since other
people on this list have helped me when perhaps I could've helped myself
if I had been willing to spend more money or to ignore my family a
little bit...."
If any of us wanted to be antisocial, we could withhold answers to
almost every question on this list because almost every piece of
information is available in a large library somewhere if the person were
willing and could afford to put every other concern aside.

No offense intended, but that's my take on it. And it's why I
feel a little bit ashamed of myself that I began my reply to Danny with
an accusation when he had already stated that his school library didn't
have the information.

Cheers,
Bill
