It would have served me well in my younger, more impetuous days.

Here’s the questions you can ask:
1. A perfectly clear and unambiguous question that could probably be answered with a yes or no.
2. A long ramble with a “what do you think?” at the end.
3. A really dumb question designed to give the speaker another chance to talk.
4. A quirky question that indicates you care more about the speaker than the topic.
5. A really smart snarky question that underhandedly insults the speaker and everyone else in the room.
And here’s the answer you’ll always get:
Not what you want.
Off topic, but there are still some comment problems for me and I was Googling around for issues about WordPress comment counts.

There are lots of pages about “WordPress not [showing|displaying] all comments.”
One was someone who was running a query to show related posts, which was losing the current post ID prior to the call to comments_template(), but apparently a lot of things can screw it up.
People in audiences ask questions? When did that start happening!?! The students in my library-instruction sessions have to be *threatened* before they’ll ask anything:-(
Um, don’t all the options on that chart eventually lead to asking the question?
I’m a bit surprised that there wasn’t a flowchart provided for answering question. But it’s a well known folk lore result in the community.
