I couldn't help but stick my big fat nose into this one, but I think the 
blatantly obvious answer to your questions here is "NO".  If it was yes, 
then you wouldn't have seen the question in the first place.

Lets try this for an example:

Here is the background, you are running a program that monitors the 
start-up instruments of a commercial nuclear power plant to accurately 
identify the point of criticality.  In the process you get the following error:

undefined symbol: rx_zpnd_det

Isn't it blatantly obvious that you have failed to load the zero power 
neutron detector module before starting the code?  Only if you are 
intimately familiar with the terminology used in the code.  For someone not 
familiar with Asterisk, moh could very well result in the standard "huh?"

As Asterisk gets more and more popular and gets more media exposure, then 
this list will see a higher level of questions from people quite new to 
asterisk.  Expect to see alot of questions that fall along these lines as 
well as alot of questions that could be answered by diligent use of google.

Thats just the way it is.  Oh, and don't forget, the portion of people 
using Outlook will increase too.  Of course this also means alot more money 
will start to flow into the "Asterisk" world as well, as generally you can 
find a direct relation of money and Outlook.

Sorry for going WAY WAY WAY off topic, but the meanness level of this list 
has shot through the roof in the last 3 months or so, and I don't know 
about anyone else, but I imagine more people than I read these one liner 
"are you an idiot" responses and get a little ticked at it.  So take a 
moment before you kick out a post and try to be helpful without wrapping up 
a grenade or scorpion along with the present.
