Hi Paul.
The biggest benefit of this site (and the techwr-l list) is the
collective knowledge of the users. If you post a question with the
right words, you'll receive a wide range of opinion, facts and
half-truths. I write that with a smile, of course.
The penalty for having free-access is that you must cull good answers
from bad. This is not so much a penalty, as it is practice for what
you'll experience on-the-job.
If you participate in discussions, don't reply to anything negative.
Subscribe to the list with an email client that has good blocking
rules. And by all means, post a question for comment.
