Generic online classroom in the figurative sense, Andy. People gathered together to exercise their questioning muscles.

Larry King gets paid to do what he does. And who is Tom Felton?

If you go to the Tom Felton site on wiki you'll be able to read about his birth in the UK, acting career, personal data, etc...

Thanks Bob, I think you helped me to decide whether or not to toss my old socks, but you see they are my most comfortable pair and has only one hole each, so while lounging in front of my computer why not be comfortable I ask? Asking you if you find it preferable or more comfortable to wear green socks in public might not get a positive result, which is why I don't wear green socks in public, however do you ever? I think your choices as conservative as they are is probably more my inline with my taste too, but doesn't wool make your feet sweat? Isn't cotton more absorbent so therefore cooler and less sweaty?

Let me rephrase the question:

What is it about Mr. Felton that made you choose him as an expert on asking questions?

Don't you think a hole or two in your socks help to keep your toes wiggly and a lot cooler?

Would you please ask cash who seems well informed about socks?
I am wondering who the knucklehead is that gives Grampy Bobby a thumbs down on every post he makes? Is he a former gladiator?

Dye from socks can cause additional irritation to sensitive areas. More OCD than anything. My Granny told me about a guy that had a blister and dye caused complications resulting in amputation. I've worn white socks (2 pair) most of my life.

"Going online..." caught my attention; otherwise nothing in particular. His observation as well as the other six...
Question: Does effective questioning promote worthwhile online conversations on topics that matter to us all?

Answers: “Judge a man by his questions rather than by his answers.” -Voltaire | “The scientist is not a person who gives the right answers, he's one who asks the right questions.” -Claude Lévi-Strauss | “If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers.” -Thomas Pynchon, Gravity's Rainbow

“It's a fact—everyone is ignorant in some way or another. Going online and asking questions is the best way to learn. -Tom Felton | "I love doing what I do. I love asking questions. I love being in the mix." -Larry King | "I love the early process of asking questions about a story and deciding which questions matter most." -Diane Sawyer

“At the end of the day, the questions we ask of ourselves determine the type of people that we will become.” -Leo Babauta
