All of this sounds like the normal friction between siblings, with the added detail that a little brother can become a big brother on this stuff with enough will and practice.

One thing that is a HOT DAMN BUTTON for me showed up here; I have ranted and pushed and shoved in different threads to try to get people to include enough information so that we do not suggest things that make no sense, and to title their threads so that we have at least a SINGLE clue what they are about.

I have actually seen a thread titled "Need Help." WELL, F#*&ING DUH ! ! ! ! Why would anything except morbid curiosity or a desire to flame the writer motivate me to open such a thread?
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

Also I would add (just saw a thread that way) that if you realize the answer to the problem, then instead of just posting "I found the answer" post the answer as well. This way the next person that might have the same problem and finds the thread knows what to do to fix it

If by that you mean you've just laid an egg whilst sitting on the fence, I have absolutely no reservation in agreeing.

Jim, no matter how idiot proof you will make something you will always find an idiot that messes it up
