Dumb questions!
The only dumb question is the one not asked! I think it was Albert Einstein that said that. I finally asked a question on here, because I was just so stressed by not finding my site, and felt so dumb posting the question, but WOW, the stress was gone within 5 minutes of the post. All because someone answered. Thank you @About Davidpate20. And they answered factully and helpfully.
If I hadn't thought of felt the question was so dumb I would have asked it 2 days ago, instead of trying to figure it out on my own (to no avail) So here you are all my fellow WA Friends ask away, because if you don't know the answer some will happily and willingly answer. We all can't know everything, but collectively we will all know something.
So when I asked the question this morning, I wanted a "Factually Correct Answer", not an opinion, or a well reasoned judgment. So you see we can ask questions, but will we recieve the answer we need, or want?
This whole topic could become more than I intended it to be. There is another topic on how to ask a question properly. You don't ask a Yes or No question because that is all you will get!
Questions starting with “would,” “should,” “is,” “are,” and “do you think” will give you a Yes or No answer. BUT...a question starting with “who,” “what,” “where,” “when,” “how,” "help" or “why” will give you more information and thoughtful answers.

One of the real positives of WA is that we can tap into a huge knowledge base of relative information if we don't know things the chances that someone from the community will.
I like how you have phrased that Noreen, how we present the question does influence the answers thanks for sharing your insights.
was just so happy that someone was able to help!
That is one of the best things about WA so supportive.
