Is the attitude really necessary? Not everyone is able to spend the time reading through every single page of any/every forum thread on the internet before posting. I'd wager there's probably a thread or two on the interwebs that you haven't read from start-to-finish before posting in. And it doesn't help that the forum is void of search-function and user's-posts abilities.
You could've spent half the time and words reiterating what your answer was, and it would've also had the "bonus" of being a more recent reminder for any newcomers to the thread.
And for what it's worth, Oso has done more for this thread at this point than pretty much anyone else, myself included. I'm not saying that to rag on anyone, of course, I'm just saying -- the guy just put up an entire disc of the thread's puzzle for one and all -- the least you could do is give him a post-# or link to what you said if you're unwilling to reiterate the gist it.
Nothing personal, though.
This thread is only 4 pages long. What I wrote was on the last page. Does one really need a search engine for that? ;)
