Well then in such cases I propose :

1. If a question's answer could be found by a simple search, then we reply with the search query 
2. Send him a link to how use a search engine effectively : http://www.googleguide.com/
3. Also include the link to the Mailing Lists Etiquette : http://www.ubuntu.com/support/community/mailinglists
4, Also include the Mailing Lists Etiquette in the Mailer signature that gets appended to every reply.

And I was wondering
Rather than arguing if this list is / was a great / good list
why not prove / begin to prove that is list is and will be an excellent one

Just my 2 cents people ..
