That is SO true. Ask any question about anything (particularly science or law or [of course] politics, facts of any sort, history, the Bible, et. seq.) and you will get very erudite answers.
Post an innocent post and misspell something or use improper grammar and you will also get erudite answers!!
If I was an author, I would run my stuff by FR first for fact checking, syntax and quality.
That's a good idea- our spelling police and fact police would be doing us a favour!
