To quote Einstein:

###Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

People come here, ask questions, we duplicate (most of) them, find an interesting question every now and then and answer it but most of the time we find dreck and the more time you spend on the site, the more dreck you find as you get smarter whereas the next n00b will still be a n00b just as you were a n00b once upon a time... **:-)**

As most users [don't ask smart questions](http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html) let alone [write the perfect question](http://tinyurl.com/stack-hints), you should just hit the back button and move to the next question when (not if) you see a dumb question. **;-)**
