I somuch agree with you that this forum is not the only avenue to learn about Bitcoin as you said based on the fact that there information relating to Bitcoin spread across the internet for people to read and comprehend, I also agree with your second facts but I want to to understand that we have different people here with different level of understanding and sharing of knowledge, there are people here who has contributed more in this forum than their fellow not because other people don't get information but because of IQ and how presentable their contributions are.

I will like to argue a little stuff in your write up, I want you to know that even with Internet, people still find it difficult to learn, learning isn't that easy as you think, there are some people that has been here for awhile but still can't hold hand on anything they have contributed here, does it mean that those people don't go to the Internet or some search engine to learn some stuffs, I think learning depends on individual not necessarily the source of the learning itself, when I got to know about this thread new, I paid much attention on how JayjuanGee explain things, he is a teacher, he argue things with fact and arive at the best of his knowledge and very grateful to him because i leaned a lot from him.
Though we are here to share different ideas that's if we got one but learning from others is dependent on the ability of an individual to adapt and read through the discussion of the day without showing the impression that he knows when he doesn't.
