Oh, please! I have never seen such a better community then this one (well, some
exceptions come to mind right now, but it's still within the best).

I have personally found GREAT replys from the developers (Tom Lane comes to
mind, saving me lots of time in some ocations), and users of this list.

Don't missunderstand me. Everyone (including me) some times makes responces in a
bit of a hard manner, but I think you have to see the whole picture, and not a
par of snapshots.

P.D.: BTW, RTFM is very good. You can learn alot from them. ;-)
