The knowledgable need to teach the newbies, but must be careful about how they teach them. The person teaching can't just give all the answers away. They need to coach them towards the answers. If you are a good writer then type everything you've learned so that those who don't know can find out. The problem right now are all the newbies that enter the scene, read 2 or 3 docs, and think they're gods. When you meet newbies, don't just give them the answers, teach them. Teach them how to learn as well. That way, you keep the scene from becoming shallow and lame. When you learn something new or interesting, type it up an upload it someplace where it can made useful. Don't keep secrets when it comes to knowledge. Before you leave the scene for good, write about your expiriences and the things you've learned so that the next generation of newbies will have the chance of knowing what you knew. - - -- --------------------------------------------------------------- -- - - This concludes the "Why educate the masses?" document.
