It hasn't anything to do with native intelligence. It has to do with thoughtless expectations of instant gratification. It has to do with a 'you give, I take' attitude. "I gave you a link, give me a dissertation" is not a trade expected by rational people. Perhaps a trip to my second reference above would not be amiss, for more than the OP.

Your sarcasm is misplaced. I'm not exceptionally smart, nor do I try to pretend that I am. I'm knowledgeable about programming through hard work, nothing more. I'm sorry you're too biased to see that.

Lets take it easy, guys. I'm closing this thread.

@ the OP: If you still need help, please create another thread. My reccomendation would be to post a far more specific question, and a more descriptive title. In general this will greatly improve the relevance and quality of the answers you recieve, otherwise we are not sure exactly what you need help with. One of us may type out a detailed response only to later realize that you needed help on an entirely different topic.
