RTFM is a many edged sword...
* Sometime people are being lazy and just want to been spoon fed the answer
* Somepeople just want to know where in TFM to start and what some of the
terms are
* Sometimes there is no manpage
The art is helping people to help themselves withouting being rude or
arrogant. I do not claim that this is easy but I do believe that the
Hants-LUG seems to be populated by some helpful people that makes it a very
civil place to inhabit.
As you say there are some places that are occupied with helpful but clueless
types and plenty of places occupied by skilled and unhelpful people.

I've found that people who are great at something are
not so much convinced of their own greatness as
mystified at why everyone else seems so incompetent.
