bravo. i see your point, and you have a very compelling argument. it's often times hard to remember what it's like to know that the answer is plain and simple and there... yet for some reason, you can not find it. so, my suggestion is, maybe there should be a multi-channel setup, whereby some group of users are able to rate a question on the level of knowledge required to answer such a question? a question like this would have a rating of novice, and therefore anyone who was too damned high and mighty (making fun of myself here...) to answer novice questions, ('cause you know, we'd never been novices :) ) would just be able to ignore them...
