Re: Resetting QSECOFR's password

["Larry \"DrFranken\" Bolhuis" <midrange@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Clearly the link has value if you know one password or the other but the 
OP stated that they didn't know either. I'm also not a big fan of 
postings to any list that are merely a link with no comment whatever 
UNLESS the OP's question was 'can someone provide me a link to xxx?' In 
that case the link is a direct answer the question.

I've always been a big fan of not just an answer but a reason where 
possible. Beyond only providing answers, education is key or all you end 
up with is a large number of simple questions.

In other words don't just give a man a fish, teach him to fish.

My absolute least favorite posts are where someone asks a question, 
perhaps the very question I am searching for an answer to, and the 
thread is marked *SOLVED!*.  Sadly when you get to the end the OP has 
merely replied 'fixed it' but with no detail whatever on how that was 
accomplished.  IMHO such a thread should be deleted as it provides 
negative value by drawing in people with that issue but only providing a 
waste of time and no solution. Fortunately I do not see this occurring 
much on Midrange-L and I hope it stays this way!
