And Lord, we are especially thankful for nuclear power, the cleanest, safest
energy source there is. Except for solar, which is just a pipe dream

Hmmm, although I get your point, I don't necessarily agree with your statement.

I'd like to think that I write great sales text, but I agree that I wouldn't spoon feed someone, rather, I'd point them in the right direction and give them the opportunity to figure it out for themselves.

If everybody were to just lurk and never share any ideas, what's the point of this community?

I think his point is that there is a difference between sharing ideas and posting a statement like "this is the best design for a free site - LINK".

It would be like, there is no sharing there, just an ask and receive system.

I officially have no idea what you are not agreeing with.

Ah. You know what your problem is? You aren't jaded yet.

Here's the thing. I used to enjoy helping newbies and I'll still occasionally pop into a newbie thread to redirect it if I see someone is getting shit advice or an important fact is being left out. Do you know why I bother to do that? Because it'll make me look smart and experienced to some poor schmuck who doesn't know the truth; the reality that I'm nothing more than an angry little man who can't make things work, will never truly succeed in this business. So I make myself feel better by unleashing criticism and a torrent of explicatives on idiots who couldn't possibly put up a good defense in a battle of words against a guy like me - a wannabe English professor who'd rather wallow in self-pity and self-hatred than build the motivation to go back to school.
