One of the many good things about a forum is that you can air all sorts of ideas and ask all sorts of questions and nobody really gives two hoots. Even if to others they might seem silly, daft or just plain stupid, you'll always get answers. In classrooms, I always say that there's no daft, silly or stupid questions - just questions that deserve answers
But it is better to ask and discuss these things here (or in the class) than to go full steam ahead and publish them. That way, the readers KNOW that you're daft, silly or just plain stupid
Agree 100%, always a pleasure to see brains cells flexing their muscles.
