What is up with the Biology section?

It seems like everyone here is looking for answers to 9th grade biology homework. What gives? That is what the homework section os for. I am a biology major and used to love coming here for the mental stimulation- but now its just pure drivel.

Am I the only one taht notices this? Are there any other bio-nerds left here?

Update:

Nice to see at least 1 other nerd!

And I have no problem helping out anyone that needs it- its actually quite rewarding and sharpens my mind to recall and explain back the information. I just get frustrated with the ones copy/pasted straight out of the book, multiple choice and all. Like one earlier asking what DNA is and its structure. Its in the glossary of any science book- under DNA. Not hard in the least.

For those with need of help- keep 'em coming! I do really enjoy it! Those that just don't want to turn the pages- just irk me.

    I prefer to think of myself as a Bio-Geek and a Techno-nerd.

    The biology section is fine. Appears it continues to very well without you. I do not see an actual biology question. Looks more like chatting or a rant. Should I report you? Besides that, you were not clever enough to use spell check. And your grammar could use a little help. I really doubt that anyone cares about you getting irked. I notice you are not a Top Contributor. Perhaps you are a nerds nerd.

    Im actually a sophomore in college and find this section extremely helpful. You should really use your knowledge to help others... instead of criticizing.
