Are Knollers Introverts?

[elle]

David Petherick has posted several posts here and no one seems to respond. I have tried to be provocative, still no response. The only explanation is that Knollers are scared to discuss their problems for fear of being found out that they know nothing? What else is there? For example, there is another group that has 546 members, but no one asks questions, nor offers solutions to problems on Knol. Why? see: http://groups.google.co.uk/group/knol-users/topics

And it isn't as though Knollers are so brilliant that they live in their own ivory tower and cannot condescend to mill with the riff raff. Someone please explain this mystery to me.

I'm coming in the middle of this discussion, so I'm not quite sure I've gotten the main point of this thread. If it is about non-discussion for fear of ignorance, remember, you're only ignorant as long as you don't know something. How do you learn it? Ask, it's as simple as that.

Miriam that is what I am asking, why do people join a discussion group and then go silent? It does not make sense. Welcome on board.

No, it doesn't make sense, but people are strange creatures. Sometimes we're so afraid of hearing the answer to our question that we never bother to ask in the first place. It's ludicrous! That's how you learn.

But the trouble with us, egotistical humans, is that we prefer to Tell than Ask. Or many prefer to Google it rather than ask. Hence bonds are not given a chance to develop?
