Getting answers to your questions here can indeed be hit or miss, but you'll have much better odds if you can boil your question down to a specific point and concisely explain whats going on. I don't even bother reading posts that have 50 lines of code in them, its just too hard to follow.
Another thing would be to develop a severe RSS addiction like I have. I am subscribed to probably 60 or so Flash and Flex blogs. I also check MXNA a few times a day. With that many potential sources of info you're bound to stumble upon a nugget every now and then.
