doesn't work if everyone knows what they are talking about and you don't have the first clue.

More importantly, the saying that if you have a question then someone else probably has the same question but doesn't want to ask it is usually true. And since I truly don't care what anyone thinks about me, I might as well go for it and ask.

my favorite was this eco freak science teacher I had in college. It was some moronic soft science I needed to take for my degree, and she just assumed and guessed at pretty much everything that wasn't exactly what her specialty was and didn't give a crap if she was totally and completely wrong. She actually thanked me for playing devil's advocate at the end of the semester.

Oh not doubting the value of questions for one second. Just disputing that there is "only one way to learn" and that asking questions is it.
