If you design it right, there can be many 'pointers' to a specific question, and you can make it show up in multiple places. (ie: 'Technical' and also 'Mid West') It would be very similar to any 'Moved: ' posts you see on the forums. There is only one record in the database -- but it shows up in multiple forums.
And, someone above said there could be 'question + answer' and then discussion following. You could keep the thread locked until a moderator answered -- and then it could be opened for discussion afterwards. Or, like Al said, there could be a parallel thread somewhere else for discussion, with a link from the answer post. (ie: 'Discuss this here.')
