I think there are inherent limitations to an internet bulletin board as a form of help. I know there are different ideas as to how to best use the format to the best advantage for the greatest amount of help to the greatest number of people. I think you and Dr. Bob both want the same end, although Dr. Bob's ideas may be different than yours about how to achieve it.
I think it's a shame that there are limitations, not just in this but in many other aspects. So many times I just really ache to help someone, but know that they need help IRL, and that an internet bulletin board, no matter how well intentioned, is not enough. That's not a comment on this circumstance, but just a general comment.
