Help with parallax serial LCD and arduino uno

Hey Nick,

Since you are more experienced with forum admin, is it common to see newbies exhibiting newbie shock[1]?

[1] The shock felt by an experienced person well respected in his own circles (in job, family, other forums) becoming a newbie in a different circle. They either get agitated easily and become argumentative and hostile when they feel treated as a newbie.

There must be a proper English term for this. I felt this fellow has this symptom. I also saw someone else (newbie again) having similar symptom, wouldn't post code or picture but stressing on self being experienced. I have only be heavily involved in two forums so I don't know if this is common.
