penalized 5 points for asking a question and you get two points for answering questions, and then you get 3 points back for picking the best answer. It looks like you come 2 short by asking a question. With out questions would there be any answers?

isn't 2 pts worth tapping into the minds of the Y!A to answer your most vital questions....
