Greetings, fellow head-scratchers. I figured I'd make an account on here in case I need it. Who knows; maybe I'll even be able to help someone out one of these days :D. Prepare yourselves for extra-funky questions.

It's a good idea when posting questions (especially extra-funky ones!) to post links to the reading you've been doing so far to try to answer the questions. That helps us gauge your background, and helps us give the best answers and help that we can. :smile:
