YES! Please consult you local library first. How do you feel if a coworker
or classmate constantly walks up to you and asks you questions that can
be read up in a manual or a standard text? I get bothered pretty quick.
On the other hand if someone approaches me with a challenging and open
question I am typically very interested.

Just some random thoughts from the trenches...
