There's a problem here: Saying something like, "users are stupid," makes _you_ look ignorant. As other have said, the fault isn't always with the user; sometimes, a product is poorly designed. And, even though some users will search frantically for the "ANY" key, many other users are proficient, not dumb. I realize you mean the statement tongue-in-cheek, but you risk coming across as shallow if you state it in such simplistic terms. I'd recommend: > You need to position your UI elements in such a way that it is impossible to miss, and make its function so clear that _even the most novice users_ won't fail to understand it.
