Yesterday, while writing a paper with over 100 references I
asked a simple question quickly, "what is the latest KRBV
RFC #" in a nice (i thought) polite way.

I received a nice private response from one of the authors of the 
RFC, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.  

I was in a hurry and had searched the RFC WAIS index with no luck
on key word searches.... your reply was very much appreciated.

<SOAPBOX>

On the other hand, someone (whom I shall not name), flamed me
and called me very unprofessional names *because* I even asked
the question.

Clueless are people who jump with anger when someone asks a quick
question....If you don't want to reply, just don't read the post.

To that person with the very bad habit, you need a beer...
.....sorry to disturb your unstable mind with
a question regarding a 4 digit numeric sequence. :-)

TO everyone else:

Thank you very much for the quick answers.  You all know who you
are.  I'm glad the group is represented by people like you.

Tim
