The example was a joke, but even though I dislike the use of anonymous accounts, atleast they are still getting help from the entire knowledge base of CD.

Are there mentors more knowledgeable then all of us combined absolutely. But there are also plenty who know much less.

The fact that you said that alarms me and hints at some arrogance that you might (or might not) have. Also you contradicted your first statement with your second. You said that the group of all of you will have the required knowledge, and just because I don't know it doesn't mean you don't... Well I sure hope that you have more than I do, because I know for a fact the I (or my entire team combined, including the mentors, for that matter) don't have enough knowledge. And also when you yourself said that one mentor might have more knowledge than all of you combined, how can you still say that you will be able to answer everything. If someone can have MORE knowledge that you, than that means you don't know everything...... And that is the point of cd, so that both the good mentors (and students) can give their good advice, and the mentors and students with bad advice can get told that their advice is bad... So the OP only listens to the good advice, oh and the bad advice people also learn the proper advice for future use... its a win win
