In a couple of years the OP may well be helping us.
I was not offended by the OP's question, and I would hope they weren't offended by my apparently lame attempt at a humorous response. I don't believe there was any personal attacks in my post, but maybe that's bcause I "knew" what my words meant when I wrote 'em.
BTW, that noob label applies to me as well.
