I have the book. It doesn't have all the answers.

That's because it's written for actual, experienced pilots,
not self-avowed experts trained on a PC game.

No, that's because it is incomplete, like all information sources.

I think the most infuriating thing to most of us is that a great
majority of your questions (especially this one), could have been
answered by taking 3 seconds to type "step climb" into Google (I just
checked).

I understand you're looking for knowledge... do you understand that
your manner chafes most of the individuals on this board? You could
have saved us all a great deal of frustration and headache had you
taken the few moments necessary to look up this information on your
own.

I understand this is against your nature, but I don't care how old you
are, its time you began to learn empathy.

That is arguably true of every single question asked on this newsgroup, so
that cannot be what infuriates you, because you are not infuriated by
questions asked by others. Try again.

It bothers some people, but that is their problem, not mine. I'm interested
in discussing and learning about aviation, not making friends.

See above.

Maturity does not suffice?

Others have a better understanding empathy and tact than yourself.

so that cannot be what infuriates you, because you are not infuriated by
questions asked by others.

That should only be further hint to you that there is something about
your manner which seriously clashes with this community.

Try again.

Case in point.

It bothers some people, but that is their problem, not mine.

So you see this forum as nothing more than a playground to exploit to
get your needs met, not as a community of fellow human beings who
share some of your interests...

Classic Sociopathic mindset.

I'm interested in discussing and learning about aviation, not making friends.

And it has never struck you for a second that through a bit of tact
and empathy might not have driven away those of us who were initially
eager to assist you?

Maturity does not suffice?

I would suggest that the level of animosity directed towards you on
this and many other forums you participate might suggest that your
definition of maturity does not suffice, no.

A resource, rather than a playground. No, I don't see it as a community.
People who treat mere newsgroups as communities may have some unresolved
issues. Not every venue for human interaction has to turn into a social club.

Classic Sociopathic mindset.

Were I to make a similar proclamation about aviation, you'd criticize me for
not being a credentialed expert in the field. What are your credentials for
diagnosing psychological problems?

The ones who are driven away don't represent much of a loss. They tend to be
people with large egos that are unsupported by their knowledge bases or
intellect; blowhards who like to sound like experts but are not. They either
cannot answer my questions, or they give the wrong answers.

People who are smart, and not insecure, and reasonably mature, and
knowledgeable on the subject in question will answer without the knee-jerk
emotional response of the group described above, and they will not be driven
away. They are sometimes hard to hear above the background noise created by
the first group, they they are usually there, somewhere.

I would suggest that the level of animosity directed towards you on
this and many other forums you participate might suggest that your
definition of maturity does not suffice, no.

Animosity is not characteristic of maturity. What animosity have I manifested
in return for this hostility?

More importantly, why are so many posts discussing me, and not aviation? I
wish I could discuss aviation more, and me less.

We wish you could, too.

It is called common sense, something you lack in spades.
