I'm sorry, I obviously misread your comment. I really didn't know you need to have points in order to answer questions on SO. I'm pretty sure that wasn't the case when I started there. And it doesn't make much sense to me... how are you supposed to get the points? By writing insightful comments? :-/

Ask sensible questions. The goal of the site isn't for the askers.

It's not for the answerers.

It's for someone else.
