[ILUG] Sound file conversion

[ILUG] Sound file conversion

Ok, someone asks a question on the list, they get a terse but accurate
answer, which might seem a bit mystical and unhelpful. What do you do?
You're an Internet user... Search engines! A search on google lists the
sox we require in the 3rd place:

http://www.google.com/search?q=sox

The others are related to American Baseball or football (no idea
really:) so it should be plain where more information can be found.

What I was refering to though was your use of "???" which IMO is like
demanding an answer, not asking for an answer and therefore not polite
when we're volunteering our time.

Besides all that, I'll give you a hand when I can, but I'm in the middle
of.. hmm, not going to count how many projects! Sorry if my reply
appeared "elitist" but when time is in short supply that's what you get!

Donncha.
