Agreed wholeheartedly. 144 answers--of which approximately half are marked Best--3.3k rep, and exactly one question to my name. Asking my question in no way revealed the answer to me, which is why I asked it. Generally, compiling enough information to post a good question results in spotting the issue long before I get to the point of actually posting. That said, it's better to ask a malformed question than to pointlessly go down a rabbit hole, so I disagree with those who want a higher SNR; there's no such thing as a bad question (though there is a question not deserving of an answer).
