You go first! And before you say 'I'm not a professional', it doesn't matter if you don't know anything about anything - you probably know something about something, or you can ask an individual you know to volunteer, or you could pay someone to do it, or you can try some other clever solution that takes more than 5 seconds to think of.

For every person saying 'how about someone does Y', we need 10 people doing Y and seeing what happens. It's a great idea. Lots of things are great ideas. Enough with the ideas! Act!

Okay, I'll commit to emailing 7 people in a field, asking them to come to this site to answer questions.

First, I need to know what field people are interested in hearing from. I'll make a separate comment asking people what they'd most like to hear from.

Assuming I get decent levels of responses, I commit to emailing people doing this by the end of 2 weeks from now.
