hey, how would you learn if you don't ask? I hang around on another message board for a science fiction publisher and for a while there, every few days somebody new would be asking when the next book in a particular series would come out. It was kind of funny and annoying at the same time.

Hey I'm constantly asking questions seeing as how I live in a very different country and even though I grew up in the states it's really hard to keep up with slang, entertainment, electronics, ...eek don't get me started on all the stuff Americans take for granted solely because they are exposed to it.
The bottom line is sure, a person may come off as a fool for asking questions, but more than not they're genuinely clueless.

Hence my excuse for asking so many questions. End rant. :oops:
