Please impart your knowledge
I can't believe how many questions are placed here and I guess because of that, if there is no answer given in about 20 minutes, there is no answer given!
Please respond as well as ask. That is how a good board works.
Thanks!

If you are not direct, it may be difficult for others to figure out what you are really asking. Often, not enough information is provided, e.g., "Help me choose a vacation destination." Well, do you like to gamble, hike, shop, go to the theater? Help us out a little!

Good tip, Scarlett - just remember that the pants go on before the shoes...
Meesthare, I'm surprised you have such trouble getting dressed; after all, aren't you the one who figured out how to flip a coin in order to pick the best hotel room bed??

Here is my biggest peeve on this site which always attracts some know it all answer:
People post questions on a location or state and do not select that state as the topic. This almost ALWAYS results in the person receiving none or very little responses because the post doesn't show up under that state when searched. I know there are a lot of people that only like to sift through the most recently discussed posts. However, there are also a lot of people who only or in additon to search their home state or places they are most fimilar with to give advice and to discuss.
I might look through a couple pages of the most recently discussed posts but on a good day, you could have pages and pages of recent posts. I don't sort through every one of themn to find something to reply to.

Lee Ann - these are two totally different areas of specialized knowledge. Perhaps in my detailed study of hotel room beds, I neglected to learn about how to get dressed in the morning - or in the afternoon, for that matter - but now that I've had it explained to me ...

I love it when posters write
"Advice needed about" say Wash. DC
I am sooo tempted to answer "don't go there...or ? weather in the Carolinas in August???
Hot and humid so go somewhere else!!!!
Of course I try to answer with helpful stuff..
Now that I've got that out of my system on with the day...
