Hi Marcia,

I agree also. A WAG *might* be ok, as long as it *is* presented as such ... but it should probably be a SWAG, not a WAG. <g> As you say "the wrong answer is worse than receiving no answer". Personally, I seldom attempt to answer a question if I don't know the answer. Bad for my reputation. <g>

There is certainly no shortage of expertise around here, so it is not like someone who doesn't know the answer or understand the question should feel compelled to post anything. Some who actually has the knowledge will probably be by to give a better answer in a few minutes.
