Heh, actually I took the time to answer it. Read the complete post.
That was my point - I didn't think that FAQ worthy of your time, and thought you said as much in your first reply!
Besides, I really don't know what's so hard in typing "openzaurus flash problem" into the search form and reading the first (!!) entry:

No argument there!
I guess I'm too much used trying to educate people. Reading is so much more important than writing and especially when it's so easy to use the search function. You probably have no clue what I'm talking about, but the fact how manners are evolving through the use of digital media is scaring the hell out of me. When the same questions are asked over and over, the knowledgable people just disappear and this kills a healthy community. I've seen it on many mailing lists and actually I like this forum and would be sad if this would happen to it as well.

I agree, it is far more important to do the reading.
I think the problem is this: When someone runs into a problem, like this user did, they have two choices:
1) Do the web search and find the damn answer!
2) POst a question
There are people out there, as I'm *SURE* you know , that would take choice #2 - after all, it's easier, isn't it?
If the users keep getting quick results with #2, why bother with #1? That's the point I was trying to make.
Perhaps some other users of the forum could have answered this particular users's question. This would no doubt save frustration for you, don't you think?
And the phenomenon you describe isn't specific to digital media, IMO... Notice how other drivers on the road won't hesitate to "flip you the bird" from within the safe confines of their own vehicle? Those same people act differently face-to-face. Digital media provides the same feeling of imperviousness.
