EvMick, the claim "I don't know where to find it" on the internet is
about the most lame excuse an individual can make in this life. About as
bad as claiming to not know how to wipe one's own nose, or other bodily
parts. I'll bet you that there isn't one subject that is on the web that
I can't find with a search engine of my choice.
It all comes down to individuals taking responsibility for their own
education, and respect for others. What do you think the secretary of
state would say if you walked into a Cabinet meeting and asked a basic
question about the Presidency?
