Furthermore, at least speaking for myself, if I don't have an answer 
then I'll keep quiet. Thus if no-one has any clue or no-one can 
understand what's being asked, then there'll be no answer. The 
alternative would be dozens (or even hundreds) of people answering 
with "I've no idea" which definitely wouldn't be helpful.
