There are three common problems left for those like me asking
"repetitioned questions":

1.) Most search engines of wikis are as "bone-headed" as those trying 
    to answer the question like the above example. Search engines dont 
    understand any context.

2.) For one not being a native English speaker it is often difficult
    to get the right words for the right match.

3.) Sometimes one can describe the problem without the faintest idea
    of any keyword to be filled into such [CENSORED] search engines.

Without the evolution of search engine into finding enginges mailing
lists will exist, where questions are answered more than once.

Kind regards,
