How can we support students more in this forum?

Geoff I think he was trying to say as a teacher " I am shocked that you are trying to cheat rather then make the observations yourself" ( where " ......." are my words ). As a teacher myself I say good on him for having the nouse to search for a forum then make the effort to join and find the answers to his questions . However, I do suggest that he only uses the information he gets to support HIS OWN OBSERVATIONS and check their validity. This way he will gain a better understanding of the concepts involved and DO VERY WELL INDEED IN ANY TRICKY TESTS HIS TEACHER IS BOUND TO SET BASED ON HIS RESEARCH . I think the real question is not how can we support students on the forum as most people jump in to help every time these come up (bunch of great folks) but rather how can we attract more young people to our wonderful hobby.
