I have noticed that since I have been answering mostly private questions my rankings have went way up. How do you think that happened? My point is that I will answer a feww on the question boards but for the most part it will be private.

I like the fact that you are interested in one-on-one counseling. I think that is an excellent way to handle this environment.

For now I'm going to stay in the general arena simply because I want to be as effective as I can. However, all this ranking stuff really doesn't appeal to me. I'm in this venue simply for one reason. To help others help themselves. I think I get more out of hearing a good report from a questioner than I will ever get out of the ranking system.

One thing I hope the powers to be in this venue do soon is to create a bulletin board or an e-mail system for experts only to allow us to talk to other experts outside this question/answer board. That way we will only be answering real questions from those that need our advise. I believe that will pretty much eliminate the abuse we've all seen recently.

Keep up the good work. By the way, I used to live in Salt Lake City. Actually in Holiday.

If you would like to communicate privately with me my e-mail address is wwnelsonfive11@aol.com.

Keep up the good work.

William
