Steve, I don't think anyone on this list has said "No, I don't understand
why newbies are having a hard time. Everything on OSM is as simple as it
could be and we should stop trying to spend time making it simpler."

I think people are (a) upset with the *way* you brought up the point
(repeated personal attacks) and then (b) trying to figure out what you're
saying in between all the inane and negative banter so that we can work as a
community to solve things.
