I rarely post questions, just monitor the list to learn.  Seeing multiple
responses to questions, with answers from different perspectives, is
invaluable.

And the questions I don't know are more important than the answers :-)

No opposition to a mentoring program per se, but the list (and searchable
list archives) are an important community resource; I'd hate to see that
change.

:imho!
