PC Magazine - The Dumbing Down of America:
"I began noticing this in my e-mail only recently, but the trend may have begun years ago: people asking really dumb questions that they could easily get the answers for themselves. But they ask a person rather than do simple research. I'm not talking about someone asking me what, in my opinion, is the best digital camera. I'm talking about someone asking me who makes digital cameras. Or where you can buy CompactFlash cards. Or where you get a program that unzips files. Or 'Are there any word processors on the market besides Microsoft Word?'"
