Completely agreed....

I think my main question is with the democratization of tools to converse and publish, there's a lot more regurgitation and noise out there, instead of real, valuable, "increasing the knowledge base" type of thought. For creators it is easy to regurgitate, and too easy to consume.

I know I'm not perfect :)

I think there's a corollary to this: "you have to really understand X to be able to teach it."
