That's pretty funny. If someone that dumb calls for help, this world is in trouble. I've heard of people not knowing what to do on a computer but COME ON!! What a moron!! I wonder what this person does when they are at home and the T.V. goes out and the picture stops?? Some people have got to make you worry what planet they just walked off of...
