Question for dopers like engineer_comp_geek and chronos...

In My Humble Opinion
1

This question is to the two in the title as well as quite a few others who are like them. You guys seem to know a lot more than average on just about any question posted in GQ. And no, I am not being sarcastic or anything like that.

I am truly amazed by the amount of knowledge you seem to have. I keep going :eek: !

So the question is, how do you manage to do this? When responding in GQ, do you write stuff that you already know? Do your read a question, then just hit ‘reply’ and pound out the answer?

Or do you also go looking for answers and since you have more and better resources, you gather the knowledge and then present it in your reply?

Is it the former? If so please tell me how on earth do you manage to do this. Do you read just about anything all the time? How do you manage to retain so much?

Please enlighten.

Good luck with that, wisernow, a good magician never reveals his secrets.

Engineer_comp_geek amazes me at times. I think he’s one of those people who has a very strong recall ability. I’ve been in Engineering threads covering a range of engineering or science specialties and he will provide textbook answers that I have long forgotten since my college days.

I think the short answer is - “They are very smart!”
