Maybe, unless it's completely stupid, give them the some points for at least asking in the first place.
Some of the comments here seen to suggest that we are a bit above the general public who have no idea about Astronomy, as we would have no idea about some of the hobbies and such, that they may be proficient at, and regard us as dills when we ask stupid questions.

I made it clear in the beginning that "I'm not in any way putting people down who ask so they can be informed, that is GOOD. "
And I'll talk any ones ears off if they keep asking questions.
It's the only way anyone learns. And when I don't know the answer to a question, I'll learn too by doing some research.
But the answers fall on deaf ears, all too often.
I had a close encounter with 2 Nibiru believers last Saturday....oh boy.
