It isn't always about you.

Just because you choose not to post comprehensive replies, that
doesn't mean that Mike has to make the same choice.

Mike is typically replying to someone who just came back from a webpage
that has very clear links to the FAQ.  He is doing a public service by
calmly and rationally explaining things to them that they could have found
by themselves.  You may not like those posts, but they are not written for
your benefit,  Those who Mike addresses are usually system administrators,
and if you read the threads you will see that Mike's posts dare usually a
great help to them.
