Certainly, and for reasons that should be obvious. How useful would the
archives be if they contained only questions and no answers?

It also needs to be said, apparently, that list members offer answers,
advice, opinions, and the occasional off-topic rant of their own free
will and when they choose. A need for help doesn't _entitle_ you to have
your questions answered, and you don't get to set the terms on which
assistance is offered. Those who receive assistance with a bit of
gratitude and humility are more likely to receive more.

And I, too, miss Andrew Plato. So here's a brief Platonism:

"You can lead people to enlightenment, but you can't flick the switch
for them."

Happy Friday!
Richard
