I agree with Ara.  
However, the question raised in this thread could be interpreted as an  
exhortation  
to all those people who lazily don’t share their wisdom to do so more  
often  
…  
you also have to have people who answer easy questions, even if they  
might  
seem silly to more experienced people.
