Hello Terrrence;
Are you finding that novice questions aren't welcome here? I find them
to be a good test of my assumptions about J; 'mouths of babes" and all
that. I would consider myself to bee to much a snob if I was in that
>&0.5 crowd.
If you want, you could prefix your Subject: with [novice question] or
even [0:?] and allow those that think they know J (which makes them
either insane or Roger) can skip over them.

I am fairly certain that more than 50% of the readership for Jprogramming and
Jgeneral find my questions too amateurish for their tastes.
To that end, we need a forum where people who have not mastered a certain level
of material, say all of "Learning J" or all of the "The Primer" can ask
questions without forcing advanced users with no interest in teaching to have to
hit their delete button 10-15 times a day because of an over-excited novice such
as I.
