"Acquire a thick skin" seems to be a euphemism for "Don't expect much
civility or maturity around here". Not always, but often enough to
make me uncomfortable.  (Yes, I have a thick skin, having been on
USENET for almost 20 years).  That said, doing your homework (even to
the small extent of googling on the problem) is greatly appreciated,
and will lead to a much quicker solution to any problem one may have.
