Right on Hal. Nicely done.
When I signed up, I was exposed to an environment here on CC that I was ill prepared for. There were a few smart asses, who seemed to delight in making fools of others. While they were by far the minority, they tended to spoil it for others. I haven't seen those types of posting for some time now, but I very nearly said stuff it and gave up on CC.
Hal has said it very well. This is indeed a forum intended to enlighten, provide entertainment and a place for people with a common interest to share ideas and experiences. It is also to provide information.
In any group, no matter what the focus, there will be that 10% who insist on being right about everything and argumentative, even when they have no idea what they are talking about.
Then, to make it all worth while there are the Hal Copples of the world.
There are a group of very knowledgeable people here at CC, who willingly take their time to help others, without making a dime doing it. That's pretty special in my book. They include manufacturers, mechanics, semi-pro and pro racers and some very gifted amateurs who have built their own cars.
Y'know, it's kinda funny. I never have told anyone to do a search. It's a lot easier to just try to answer their questions. Gotta get that ego trip ya know......
