By the way, I've noticed the same thing about the Google forum. I used to spend perhaps an hour a day answering questions where I could. But then the trend became that quite a lot of the questions were either so basic that anyone reading even the first few pages of the Cookbook wouldn't ask, or "Someone help me build a Facebook copy - and hurry! Its urgent!". I found it more and more difficult to contribute any value, so drifted away. I still read every question but rarely feel the urge to respond. But I still don't use that as a measure of the quality of the tool.
